Description

As the great summer getaway kicks off, journeys have been beset by issues while millions of Brits are expected to travel this weekend as the school holidays begin. Those attempting to travel by ferry to France from Dover are enduring waits of four hours or longer, with the port blaming the French for “woefully inadequate staffing”.The issue has been exacerbated by the extra checks at border control necessitated by Brexit, and I'll take you through what's happening.Of course, this podcast is free, as is my weekly newsletter that you can subscribe to at: http://www.independent.co.uk/newsletters Hosted on Acast.
