EXCLUSIVE: A BAGGAGE handler at a British airport has been found with an ISIS flag stitched to the inside of their glove, in what is believed to be the first case of its kind in the UK.
The discovery raises the alarming prospect that staff at British airports could be operating as part of a jihadi sleeper cell.
A senior security source confirmed to Express.co.uk the discovery of the glove was "not the only case" and that other radicalised airport workers had been identified at more British airports.
The UK airport where the baggage handler worked has not been revealed but Britain's biggest airport, Heathrow, has said it is not aware of any such incident at the west London hub.
Concerns about radicalised airport staff first came to light in France in the wake of the Paris attacks, when it emerged as many as 70 members of staff with airside clearance were stripped of their passes.
At Brussels airport, which was hit by a terror attack in March, security services said at least 50 ISIS supporters were working as baggage handlers, cleaners and catering staff.
Police at the Belgian airport said the workers were in possession of security badges and even had access to the cockpit of parked aircraft.
And in August this year 300 airport staff at Heathrow had their passes suspended in a major security crackdown.
Cleaners and caterers were caught up in the probe which employer Sodexo said was a precautionary measure and there were no known terrorist links.
It followed news that police were investigating a scam involving airside security passes at Heathrow.
Philip Baum, a leading aviation security expert, said there were numerous examples of people working airside in the UK who had made expressions of sympathy for ISIS.
He said: "You only need one bad egg - and given the tens of thousands of people who work in the aviation industry, and in some airports it's tens of thousands in one airport, it is a huge challenge. "
But he added: "It is not all going to be about using screening technology.
"Ultimately we need to apply common sense, we need to evaluate people, that is going to be the most useful technique that can be applied, whether you are looking at passengers or airport employees.
"Airports are making a constant effort in the UK to monitor their staff and people are being encouraged to report suspicious postings that their colleagues might make on social media.
"We need to recognise that in all areas of operations we have to be aware of the airside threat and it is a threat that might be due to psychological problems, such as Andreas Lubitz [who crashed a Germanwings plane into a mountainside].
"Or it might be a threat due to the nature of the industry, it is a global workforce now, or due to people's political ideologies."
Airport staff in the UK are routinely screened in a similar way to passengers but background checks are only carried out when someone is first employed at the airport.
It means there is the potential for workers who become radicalised to be missed if their actions only become sinister once they have cleared their initial criminal record check.
Airport staff in the US are not routinely screened and Mr Baum, editor of Aviation Security International, said this had to change.
Speaking to Express.co.uk, he said: "Considering the US considers itself the global policeman of aviation, from my perspective it has got significant problems with its own system and doesn't meet global standards in many areas."
Raffaello Pantucci, director of international security studies at the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI) think tank, said: "People are consistently worried about aviation security and groups likely to exploit it.
"Having said that, we haven't had a successful attack in UK against an airport yet."
Wince 911 airports in old Europe and the USA have put every illiterate third world muslim they can find in the airports.
And maybe add a Pork Sample Platter and a Shot Bar halfway down the Jetway just for grins😬
That sir, would be highly non PC, and in Obamnation, only PC will be allowed to flourish. I know it sucks, but that's the libtard society we live in.
That’s one I haven’t read.....will now seek it out
If Hillary wins, we all need to immediately make peace with Islam and welcome them into our country by the millions. and stock up on popcorn.
I had not flown in years, and flew recently. It seemed that the airports were filled with Moslims working in all sorts of capacities.
Do you think our corporations and governments want us dead?
Don’t forget even more and advanced means of protection stipulated by the second amendment.
best you get that before the election.
Not in these times unfortunately. Those are the enemy of the enlightened progressive elite.
If it were possible to exterminate us all tomorrow, they would do it and celebrate.

I have it in a faded and tattered copy of the Fawcett Crest paperbook edition of LETTERS FROM THE EARTH ( 95 cents, as marked )
I see that this book can be purchased online for the reduced price of $6.99. The only online text I see is of LETTERS FROM THE EARTH per se, without the additional material which included THE FRENCH AND THE COMANCHES.
The text is on six pages which are covered by 3 scans, if you see what I’m getting at. “There is little question, in my mind, that France is entitled to a distinguished place among the partly civilized peoples of our globe.”
Three weeks after 9-11 I had to get a connecting flight in Minneapolis. Almost everyone on my plane was flying for the first time since 9-11 happened. We all thought it was a bit odd that our luggage was handled - including at security stations at the time - by Arabic speaking Muslim Somalis who seemed to be everywhere in the airport.
The MSM is alarmed! They are the co-conspirators in their multicultural propaganda.
I read it in my youth. Don’t recall that story specifically it thanks for letting me know where to fond it

For the Muslims to rule the world, they have to infiltrate the west first and then to invade. The infiltration has been going on for years, now it's time for the invasion. After enough of these cock roaches are here in the US, then the next important movement will be to have the Muslim cockroaches judged by Sharia Law, THEN the next step will be to have Americans judged by Sharia Law. That will mean the Constitution has been shredded.
America's terrorists who have infiltrated our governent AND America's FIRST Muslim President think you are too stupid to see what is really going on. And if you do get it, what are you going to do about it? They're betting NOTHING.
Moron liberals like Madam Benghazi have no idea that they will get the noose too. Convert to worship Allah or you will be eliminated.
