The UK will be following in the steps of the US, allowing travel-sized liquid toiletries to be brought through security. Finally some cracks appearing the liquid security facade. But don’t bring big bottles of water or shampoo through security just yet:

Each container must be no bigger than 100ml and they must also be carried in a transparent bag and presented for screening.
Permitted items include toothpaste, contact lens solution, travel-sized medicines or anything else that might be needed for a short trip.

Also, the regulations won’t go into effect until early November. It’s not clear why there is such a delay. The U.S. put the change into effect overnight. Why does the UK need a month?

Baby steps. And still good news.
