Just listening to BBC radio and Brodie Clark's appearance in front of the Home Affairs Committee:

Some of what little I heard about the implementation of border controls ought to beggar belief but after so many years listening to this sort of thing I'm not surprised in the slightest. For example, so far as our border controls are concerned, it seems potential health and safety issues outweigh even potential national security issues now.....

Anyway, I dare say the salient points will be discussed in detail as the day progresses but I still find Labour's 'outrage' at what's apparently been going on as hypocritical as it is opportunist.
