    There should always be a massive customs queue between legitimate countries. It denotes sovereignty in its own way. Lorry drivers will soon get used to this, it is after all a very small price to pay if it means that we are in total control of the border and we can stop the Polish from gaining entry.

    It is difficult to police 300,000 sq miles with only 4 patrol boats.
    Is this another benefit of brexit? I'm still waiting to find out what the benefits are.
