Ok, so it turns out the strikers amongst the 600 My Ferry Link staff have managed to be ignored by the Le Police (who are in the same Le Union).
Somehow this minor operator, in their grievance with their new employer (DFDS, after their former employer "Le Tunnel", were seen as illegal competition having a stake in both Calias crossing methods), they have been allowed to take their grievance to all other major cross channel providers, including shutting the tunnel and the major cross channel operators,
This has cost the UK economy £1 Billion so far, plus the cost of operation stack. So, a couple of hundred cheese eating surrender monkeys have inconvenienced hundreds of thousands of people who are nothing to do with their grievance and caused over a billion in losses and costs.
It would have been cheaper to pay ALL French employees of My Ferry Link, £1.6 Million each rather than let them f4ck the entire movement of cross channel goods and people.
The few morons have also trashed the 2 ferries who DFDS have offered to take on, with half the staff being retained. If I was DFDS, I'd sack the lot of em and employ from this side of the channel.
This is what our Friends across the channel have done to their new employers ships.. Would you employ them? (Or the Gallic shrug French police for that matter!).

Someone who clearly thinks it doesn't effect them. Wait until stocks run low in your local supermarket, which they definitely will if they kick off again next Tuesday. We are a massive net importer, a sustained period of this illegal strike action will see the UK run short of goods.
This strike was a grievance between a couple of hundred employees from a small ferry firm and their new employer. I have no problem with them stopping their employer form operating, they have no right to take their grievance to stop all other operators including the tunnel.
The joys of having a trade union where the French Police are in the same one as the ferry workers, I suppose. Like an illegal immigrant, they can do what they want without fear of the police doing anything about it. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.

or maybe they might cross the channel from cannes to Portsmouth, zeebrugge to hull and avoid calais all together |
You mean there are other entry points for goods in the UK ???

The main problem with that is that the other ports can't suddenly up their capacity to accommodate another 2,000 lorries a day, at least in the short run. The other problem is that Dover to Calais doesn't take 14 hours like Hull to Zeebrugge, meaning a single boat can't do a round trip in a day. The Dover-Calais boats do several crossings a day.
Even if and when the strikers allow other ferry firms and to run a full Calais to Dover service, we are already 2 ferries down as they've vandalised the former My Ferry Link ones, which will put them out of operation for a short while. ____________________ TZR250 2MA road, TZR250 1KT road, TZR250 2MA race, TDR250, YZF-750R Boost colours.
