The weather is definitely an issue when it comes to potential asylum seekers attempting to make it across the channel, but not the only one. The weather has been pretty abysmal the past few weeks, I know I live on the channel coast. Today is like a Mill pond, so let's see it makes a difference?

Yep, it was part of the 2021 Triennial art festival, that we had in Folkestone. A few of the pieces from each festival are selected as permanent installations, this was one of them.

Of course it's not just dodgy meat, it extended to all criminal enterprises. No one in their right mind wants a police state, so the best way is to work together and share as much data as possible, almost like some kind of economic community.

The company I currently work for is a pretty small, specialist forwarder. I reckon we turn over £3-4 million a year in custom declaration.

I stopped voting for Labour after the invasion of Iraq, apart from a brief flirtation when Corbyn was leader. I have voted Green pretty much all the time since and joined as a member about 3 years ago. Labour are dead as a party, as far as I am concerned.

Can't wait for next summer's chaos at Western Dock. They've put the EES facility down next the Motis clearance. This is only accessible via the Viaduct, a single lane bridge. So all the trucks import and export, coaches and holiday traffic through here.

Let's not forget only 32 percent of US adults say they personally own a gun. But there are an estimated 393 million civilian firearms in the U.S., meaning there are about 120.5 guns per 100 people. A small minority of US citizens are literally holding a gun to the head of the American majority.

From at least 1500 BC I'd say. I was working in Bench Street in Dover, overlooking the excavation when they dug this up.
