This country needs to get a grip. I have just spent an hour trying to get through to a tour operator. These people are complaining that nobody is booking holidays.

I'm baffled as to why large numbers in the queue did not eventually say "enough is enough" and walk through the (flimsy) barriers - what are they going to do - shoot you? Imagine this in (say) France or Italy?
I suppose the answer is that no-one wanted to be the first to raise their head above the parapet - since anything less than a mass exodus would result in the perceived ringleaders being picked off for 'special treatment' ...
