Let's leave it here mate. You simply aren't reading what I'm saying or wanting to listen to the facts or first hand experience on the matter.
Ironic that you go on about lazy arguments then try and blame the French!
The port authorities not having enough staff is down to the government not preparing properly for Brexit. Look on the Brexit thread, it was hilighted in there ages ago how many extra staff were required.
I don't know what the ferry companies reason is.

Truss demanding action makes me laugh; as if they’re going to give a shit about she has to say.
...and are immoralThis is just typical of this government. Headline grabbing policies that are ill-conceived, don't work, and cost the tax payer a fortune.
Exactly.The M20 35 mile approach to Dover (operation Brock formerly Stack) has been on and off for last 5 years... to respond to bad weather/bloxkades/ ferries breaking down etc. It became permanent start of year for Brexit and was compounded by P&O shambles. I drive this commute several times a week and see miles and miles of lorries waiting for extra checks on goods that didn't exist.
Council I work for has had to employ 100+ people as its now an inland port authority doing checks on goods coming in and out of Europe. They have sat doing nothing over last year (sit on floor above my office) as the offices and legal Brexit frameworks are not finished. The 100+ acre site of tarmac and warehousing has cost an absolute fortune yet still not fully operating due to fuckwit Conservatives. So chaos at Brexit is down entirely to our poor planning and under investment in Dover and yet spunking cash in other areas to portray Brexit is running smoothly.
Government need to invest in more ferry boats and ports such as Sheerness, Tilbury, Harwich, Ramsgate, Folkestone and Newhaven to reduce pressure on Dover and Kent roads.
This goverment have no vision other than tax cuts and less investment in the society and the working classes and people in poverty.
Exactly.
Truss is just repeating what she hears because she doesn't understand and is trying to look like she does. Sunak is so wealthy and detached he has no idea of the importance of the services it provides and has an antiquated view of economics.
It still baffles e how the Tories have this veneer of economic competence when all evidence suggests they don't and their economic policy ideals should have been consigned to the dustbin of history by the turn of the century.
That would be fine if it were coming from anyone but the person on here who is consistently proven to be wrong.says someone who has batshit ideas on how to run businesses and admits hasn’t a shred of experience in reality

Lol somebody should Photoshop an S.I. badge for her arm on the pictureI actually thought this was a joke at first.
What is that pose all about? It seems that other countries aren’t entitled to take back control of their borders then.
Everything the government comes out with is attention grabbing headline stuff with little substance.
The vacuous party for vacuous people.

You know you meet those people in life who can never take responsibility for anything that happens to them.
Every bit of adversity they encounter is always someone elses fault.
We''ve become a country that's like that, no self reflection, no self awareness, it's fucking embarrassing.
⬇Wrong about what?
I bet you are one of those business coach weirdos who advise businesses what to do and hurry off for the next pay day
You are so right bsb!!!
We don’t need experts anymore!!! We so bloody do
Great to see he’s being consistent with his level of commitment during this period.Pathetic c**t
Are you talking about Johnson or Sunak? Targeting refugees to get votes is as low as you can get as a human being in my view. Just for his your own ego and power he is prepared to pick in people who are fleeing their homes to avoid persecution.Pathetic c**t

Not sure even can legally cap the numbers can you? A claim is either valid or it’s not
No you can't but this Government doesn't care about international law, hence the Northern Ireland Protocol Bill.Not sure even can legally cap the numbers can you? A claim is either valid or it’s not

It’s so weird. Basically all the people left worrying about immigration are in the Tory Party, so they’re going big on something most of the electorate doesn’t care about. Same with tax cuts and burning regulations.
Going to be interesting to see how much of this sticks around after the contest is over.
It wouldn’t be hard it’s 4 so far isn’t it?I was referring to Johnson's cosplaying.
Truss is going after migrants even harder:
Brexit always meant extra passport checks at the border. The Government (and Dover), knew about what would happen back in 2020.
It was a conscious choice to do nothing about it. The government rejected additional funding for more passport control booths at Dover.
Brexiteers like Truss are incapable of taking responsibility for their own (foreseeably shit) decisions, or even sticking to what they've already agreed.
This clearly isn't France's fault - it's unbelievable that it's being presented as such.
The British government rejected a £33m proposal to double passport booths at Dover in 2020
They were warned that it would make queues at the port more likely, predictions which have played out of the last week.www.thelondoneconomic.com
Well with headlines like this one can just shake their head

They were understaffed for a short period yesterday so I'm sure that contributed.
There seems to be some disagreement as to why that was but if that was the cause everything should be ok in a few days once the back logs cleared.
Let's see.
What I don't understand, is why leave voters are accepting all the shit that's gone on since we left the EU, (shit that some of us on the EU thread predicted), why aren't they going mad because they're not getting the brexit they expected and were promised instead of swallowing bullshit excuse after bullshit excuse and this blame game bollocks
