The Dover Crossings are into its seventh year and it’s costing us dearly. The price of stemming a rising tide of disaster tourists is eye-watering. It’s a situation the state didn’t invite. It’s something we don’t usually pay for.
The French side has an attitude we didn’t expect. The lack of action is surely down to an apathetic outlook. The pro-integration policies are mixed with an ignorance to serious organised crime.
The palpable fear some feel at the news of arrests of the world’s most wanted contrasts sharply with its lack of focus. We don’t want this to happen, and yet here we are, feeling obliged to let it be so.
