Popular Post markavfc40 Posted July 25, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted July 25, 2022 Nicely explained by Simon Calder for those still struggling to understand. Given the channel who are interviewing him I am sure it is going to fall on many deaf ears. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 (edited) IIRC the stamp in the passport was one of the benefits of Brexit (from the Brexiteer population). Also, being harder to travel abroad would mean more people staying in the UK for their holidays. Edited July 25, 2022 by Genie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think he’s stupid enough to believe what he’s saying, but he’s pathetic enough not to admit any of the mess is “our” making and campaigned for heavily by his paper. Just keep repeating the lie. Edited July 26, 2022 by Genie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, but this is the Brexiteer logic. The French could completely redesign the ports and employs hundreds more people but they won’t because they want to punish the UK… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowychap Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 I think the Brexiteers would get the arse if the French took it upon themselves to redesign Dover and Folkestone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To put six more booths in would require six roads to allow people to drive to the booths. That's around the equivalent of dumping a couple of motorways in the middle of an already-busy small town.

Ok, fair enough if that’s the case. I assumed the issue was people being held back from crossing the channel (either over or under it) as there wasn’t space on the other side with passport control being backed up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a juxtaposed borders arrangement with both France and Belgium. It was at our insistence, with the rationale that it would make it easier for us to be able to check people and turn them away before they cross the channel, before they can put their feet on our soil and claim asylum. One might argue that the small boats crossing the channel are a problem of our own making. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
