With Stack being lifted last night and the roads being freer, I can't help thinking that the fault lies with EUROTUNNEL.

All these lorries and local drivers being inconvenienced and having to pay to travel further.

Why do I think it's Eurotunnnels fault? Because in the past any ferry company would accept Eurotunnel tickets but I've heard many reports that they were trying to restrict Eurotunnel ticket holders to MyFerryLink which is owned by Eurotunnel.

Sure some companies will have rebooked vehicles onto other Cross Channel operators, but the queues on the motorways will have been made worse by Eurotunnel.

It was causing chaos for colleagues who were coming from Maidstone or Faversham, the road network all around seemed to be suffering heavy traffic. They'll be glad to get things back to normal tomorrow!

Took me over 2 hours to get home on Friday, for an hour long journey.

The sheer number of people avoiding the M20 brings the A2/M2 to a near stand still - surely there's a better solution?!

Yes there is - vote UKIP!!!

EU is supposed to be a free-trade zone, so why if you live in Faversham (for example) should it be cheaper to buy Spitfire in Calais than Faversham, where it is brewed??

Could save a lot of traffic and I'm sure Mr Farrage would approve!!! Fags are cheaper too!

Certainly, it would appear to make sense to vote UKIP if your A1 priorities in life are cheap beer and fags.
