Dover let down by the French. Again.

[vetran]

Pre-referendum were were promised no queues at Dover. We were promised the end of freedom of movement but it won't affect the Brits travelling to Europe. The Brits would be able to travel and work in the EU unrestricted.

There are no queues coming into Dover from France where our staff are. It is a two way traffic, somehow we are managing.

There were queues at Christmas going from Dover to France because the French placed restrictions on who can come into France - the NoBrainers blamed Brexit.

Now it seems the French can't be bothered to staff their Passport booths properly (they have admitted the fact) and the NoBrainers are blaming Brexit again.

How thick do you need to be to want to rejoin a society / superstate that lies to you and hates you?


I suppose every time you can't make it to the loo on time you blame Brexit.

So the French are in control of their boards and the UK isn't

It's obvious why: nobody wants to come to the UK

You might find that there are no queues at Calais because UK customs and border control are not checking tulip: https://www.bbc.com/news/business-61259832 plus not many people, apart from refugees and asylum seekers want to come to the UK because they've seen both the news (the Tory government saga is now the best comedy program going) and forums like this and realised the country is populated by cretins now (not everyone, but too many)

You're confusing the EU with the individual countries that make it up. Again. The EU doesn't hate us. It's just the French. We've been at war with them more times in the last thousand years than with any other country.

From Yes, Minister Season Three, Episode Two, "The Challenge":

> Sir Humphrey: [talking about nuclear fallout shelters] Well, you have the weapons; you must have the shelters.

> Hacker: I sometimes wonder why we need the weapons.

> Sir Humphrey: Minister! You're not a unilateralist?

> Hacker: I sometimes wonder, you know.

> Sir Humphrey: Well, then, you must resign from the government!

> Hacker: Ah, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I'm not that unilateralist! Anyway, the Americans will always protect us from the Russians, won't they?

> Sir Humphrey: Russians? Who's talking about the Russians?

> Hacker: Well, the independent deterrent.

> Sir Humphrey: It's to protect us against the French!

> Hacker: The French?! But that's astounding!

> Sir Humphrey: Why?

> Hacker: Well they're our allies, our partners.

> Sir Humphrey: Well, they are now, but they've been our enemies for the most of the past 900 years. If they've got the bomb, we must have the bomb!

> Hacker: If it's for the French, of course, that's different. Makes a lot of sense.

> Sir Humphrey: Yes. Can't trust the Frogs.

> Hacker: You can say that again!

France comes up with genius way to solve UK border problem – join Schengen zone

Francois Decoster, vice president of the Haute-de-France region, including Calais, said the UK should ask to be allowed back into the free movement zone.

He said: ‘Brexit means we must do new controls. I have felt very sorry for the families, we like to welcome British tourists and we want them to come easily to our beautiful places.

‘We have a few non-EU members who are members of Schengen, why don’t we explore such an idea?’.

Wait until all the vacationers start to return to the UK, see what happens

Indeed. I live in one. Although we are part of free movement...

[TestMangler]

The question arises; just how stupid people are voting for Brexit and when they find out they have been lied to, they will then make excuses for the very people who lied to them.

Do you seriously think any Brexiter is ever going to admit to having been taken in by a handful of con artists who have anything but their best interests at heart ?

It will always, always, always be some foreigner's fault.
