The British government has announced it will follow the United States in banning laptops and other larger electronic devices from cabin baggage, on some flights from the Middle East and North Africa.

Editor of the magazine Aviation Security International Philip Baum told the World Tonight that he "didn't see any logic to the ban" adding that he'd like to believe in 2017 "we would have a more sophisticated approach to aviation security".
