Terrorists seems like a good place to start.
still how many families stuck in their cars over night and this morning for 8/10 hours wil bother to spend there dosh there next year?
We're thinking of moving down that area, but may have second thoughts if this is going to be a regular thing.
Poor driving and a population growing too quickly for the infrastructure.
Slap a 30% import duty on all French items, and then have the customs office manned by one person, who is 45, a mother, and loves calling in sick when Tarquin has a sniffle...
We can all play silly buggers, but there's pragmatism and then there is just being a little bitch. Hollande seems like the latter.
Edit - this end of the county.
Stupid woman (next door) told me it was solid. I deliberately never booked any lessons after 2.00 to come up to the Swan.
To late now, I've had a couple indoors.
I understand the extra border checks but it took them 3 days to even begin them after the Nice attacks and the attack was done by a Frenchman using guns coming in from eastern Europe. I went to France last sunday, took me an hour to get though which wasn't too bad but the joke was they didn't even check my passport.
This is deliberate and unacceptable.
I once read a book which had a section on Richard Reid, the failed shoebomber, which claimed that the extra security precautions put in place (taking off shoes etc) if you take minutes per person and add them up and compare to life expectancy etc then it actually claimed more lifetimes worth of life than anything since 9/11.... Very very very wishy washy I know but peoples time does need to be added up
I read something claiming 250,000 were waiting 15 hours
250,000 *15 = 3.75 million hours
In years that is 428.09 years.
With an average life expectancy of just over 80 years that is over 5 lifetimes that the French have taken from British people yesterday
Useless bunch of wankers.
Counter productive.
When we did get out the staff in one of the big super markets told me they were double shifting as a lot of staff couldnt get in or get home (no buses, taxis cars etc) and there had been no deliveries that day as the lorries couldnt through.
Was our villages summer do yesterday but 60% of the stalls etc couldnt get in.
far far worse than operation stack last year---still that was only 30 days that the people of Southern England took shit because of the French----feck all to do with brexit but maybe does go someway to seing why the people down here voted 3/1 to leave !
