Do you understand the significance of the fact that Brexit didn't occur until about 5 months later?

Many people arrive by train in France from the U.K . Also, the delays are at immigration , with the Covid test checking , so it doesnt really matter how you arrive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably 5 or 10 times the quantity of Calais. Same checks according to you, but different organisation. No major queues in Spain or the Remainers would have been howling again. Spanish border organisation is infinitely better than the French. You need a new ledgend writer. ‘Probably’. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure there will some new issue from Calais border control to disrupt British travel. Spain has a method to solve its problem. France has not. It’s is up to the French authorities to resolve their problems with a suitable method to prevent queues, not me or Spain. Put enough monkeys on typewriters……… Oh sorry, that brings us back to the French problem again - monkeys forgot to come to work and the typewriter broke.
