Lessons learnt again… why are they letting lorries through whilst the temporary Dover TAP is on going. This is causing gridlock in the town.

Got to laugh at DHB police at the Western Heights Roundabout.. This was posted on the Aycliffe Residents Facebook page.. lessons learnt..
“My Other half just came back from work aycliffe roundabout was blocked by lorries , he kicked off at police officer and asked wht he was meant to be doing and was pushing his horn and they threatened to arrest him haha so we can't get on and off our estate, the lorries can push horns and get nothing but a resident can't an absolute joke x”

How bad was/is it?
If I'd left town today to either Ashford or Canterbury would I have been able to get back easily or would I have got snarled up in traffic?

When to Ashford today come up the tunnels. Top of the hill the lorries was waiting.
Some driver thought F you. out in front of me down the outside lane got to the slip for capel/maxton no old bill to be seen.
Followed him down till we go to Church road then a Double decker coming the other way just by shakespeare road. Had to stop then don't worry about me behind him 20 foot away. He just stuck it in and then he come. People must of thought I was mental hanging on my horn. e stopped about 2 foot away front the front of me. I think he understand the queens english now after I gave him a couple of works which people from some areas of Dover would understand.
No old bill to stop them they come this way and get though cause once the get down to the york street lights. DHB just let them though.
Bloody joke this town I feel sorry for Gary.

So. I really have to get to Canterbury (and back. That's the important bit) this afternoon.
Is it wise or should I cancel?

Sure, go - you can always include Lydden or Aylesham/Eythorne if you have to!

The thing with these drivers that try and jump the queue, when they manage to get to the front the police turn them around and send them back, yes all they he way back to the end of the queue! I know, the selfish drivers often turn aggressive towards them. The only ones that make get priority are livestock, horses etc.

It's always seemed a bit odd that DHB will ban live animal exports to placate a load of screaming post-menopausal haridans, but are happy to send horses to France, a country where they eat errr horses!

The motive was to avoid becoming another Coventry, although I think at the moment it's the ferry operators' ban.

Livestock is carried but it is very specific, horses for only breeding, showing etc and also zoo animals for the same and pets. All are checked by the animal health department as they have to disclose them prior to arrival (in both directions).

"screaming post-menopausal haridans"
Another vapid display of ignorance, intolerance and failed humour. Perhaps not quite on the same scale as describing the slave trader Colston just as a philanthropist but close.

Thanks Reginald, I thought it was a new vaping flavour that displayed pretty patterns when you exhaled.
I think many forum members use sign language to reply to some inane comments on here too which AI is yet to interpret into printable language.
