I'm baffled why they are making such a thing about this particular variant. There are probably a thousand variants out there, why this one?
I think its location and Brexit are the biggest reasons plus a bit of scare people into not travelling at Christmas.

Sadly for the poor Truckers stuck at Manston, very few of them will get back home in the foreseeable future as they will have had to have had a PCR test in the preceding 72 hours and as they will have been on the road for longer than that none will be able to comply.

Add to that they have to be French or EU citizens then what happens to the Turks, Russians, Ukrainians etc.

With the realistic numbers in Kent/Sussex probably in excess of 5,000 tonight they have no chance of getting home for Christmas and for some they will be hoping it is New Year.
Yes this was Macron's great opportunity to make a point but it shows what will happen after 1st January and what a few of us who have been trading in the EU for years have been warning about.

Macron can make life as difficult as he likes businesses will just find a way round those problems and it will be the French that lose out, he has an election in 22 and needs to be careful he diesnt shoot himself in the foot
