Now, the Home Office is putting the finishing touches to new rules requiring compulsory fingerprinting for all passengers.
The amendments to national aviation security rules will require fingerprints to be scanned when passengers pass through security into the airside terminal. Passengers will be fingerprint-scanned again at their flight departure gate.
It is likely that the scheme will later be expanded to cover passengers at major seaports and the Channel Tunnel rail links.

I'm pretty sure they already have this in the US. I remember last time I went they took our pictures and fingerprints.
