They didn't worry about passport checks 80 years ago when our fighting forces arrived to save them from years of tyranny.

Since leaving the EU the bloody French have done everything in their power to make life difficult for us Brits, but this is really scraping the barrel.

I'm surprised the "border officials" didn't all start waving white flags when they saw the chutes dropping 3T. If it was indeed pre-arranged, then the civil serpents who sanctioned or aquiesced to it should be named and shamed and then given a good kick in the fork.

The French don't like us, and we reciprocate. Twas not always thus.

simples...extensively mine all the beaches and approaches around our southern coast line from Essex down to Devon, maybe even Cornwall. And bring back Captain Mannering, aka Nigel Farage to control it. That's probably what the Trumpette would advocate.

Well, it would probably work, DTC..

watching this dinghy thing since it started more or less, it would seem the french are actually unloading them to the uk, the government knows this, whay have they not said it to the french in plain terms and told them to stop doing it, very weak..

I wouldn't worry about it. I was reading today that when Armstrong returned from the moon he had to go through customs and declare moon rocks.

As for making things difficult for Brits ... well, they didn't for 40 years, did they? We were the ones who decided we didn't want easy customs and immigration.

What do you care jno, you openly hate the UK?

[gramps85]

jno.  It was the French attitude towards the UK when we were members of the EU, which annoyed so many people.  They were not satisfied until we curtailed to their demands and wishes.  Since we took a Democratic decision to leave their club they have done everything they can to do us down.

The Normandy celebrations were designed to give thank, and remember the many thousands of allied military, men and women, who gave the lives so we can remain free.  To wait for the paratroopers to land and ask for passports was, in my opinion, a step too far.  Yes, if the paratroopers were to remain in France then passports should be shown, but they could have waited until the celebrations were over.

I have been to France a couple of times, but not in recent years and I have no wish to return anytime in the near future.
