Containers, probably refrigerated, are packed floor to ceiling with goods. Tankers with hidden compartments. Vehicles are parked so close together they can't even open the doors. Let alone move them on to a loading ramp where they can unload them to check the goods inside and look for hidden compartments in the trailer or tank. Whats the use of any check when smugglers know all they can do is open the back door enough to peek inside *-) So containers from the rest of the world arrive half empty? *-) ...........

For insurances purposes. They can make sure that nothing gets knicked in their absence. :-| or planted.. etc. Nobody should be on the vehicle decks due to risk of stuff sliding about in a rough sea. Need to contain fire etc etc Crew go on if they have to but they are trained Mad Hatter seems to think they can have lorries moving around on to loading bays offloading goods *-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John52 Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Ports have to have undercover offloading facilities to check goods. They can't check every vehicle. But they have to have the facilities to single out any vehicle and completely unload it to check it thouroughly. Otherwise smugglers will soon cotton on to the fact there will be no effective check. You can't do this on the vehicle deck of a ferry. However long the crossing - and the channel is only 75 minutes or so. It sounds like something else that has come out of the mouth of an Eton Toff who has never done a proper day's work in his over-priveleged life and has no understanding of what he is talking about. Someone who just has the ideas and leaves it to his pooper scoopers to make them work' The pooper scoopers who will be frantically trying to make a deal with the EU when he has failed and taken us out of the EU without one.

All you have to do is walk through an adjoining field and jump into a car on the other side. There are approx 260 road crossings, some of which are private roads. Many are small lanes. The crossing roads did not all have control points, most were blocked by tank traps. People have mobile phones. Farmers have tractors with hydraulic front loaders, money changes hands, traps get lifted away, vehicles pass, traps are put back, all under cover of darkness. Rivers cross the border, boats can go down rivers. There is money to be made, so people invent ways of getting around the blockages. It was/is a local game on both sides. Anyone snitching gets knee capped - or worse. Old habits die hard. The "boys" are still around. Where there's a will, there's a way. Get real: you're living in unicorn land.
