You have said on this forum that you do not watch television so you will not have seen these people physically abusing our police force when all they were trying to do was to persuade these people to return to their cabs so that they could systematically test each driver and then send them on their way, if this had taken place on the other side of the channel the police force would have been firing rubber bullets into the crowd, and dont forget, many of our forces personell, police force and civilians could now be spending their Christmas at the port of Dover trying to sort out a situation that was not of their making

With the benefit of hindsight, although, IMHO the decision was wrong then, we have been playing catch-up ever since the Cheltenham Gold Cup. Money makes the decisions.
