    Get the withdrawal agreement over the line - take the frigging backstop - the real dealing will start thereafter.
    The EU will not be able to continue the blinder they have played so far in keeping everyone in check - latest from DFDS (a Top 30 Danish company)

    COMPANY ANNOUNCEMENT NO. 26/2019
    GROWTH CONTINUES BUT BREXIT LOWERS PACE
    Revenue up 10% and EBITDA up 8% in H1 2019
    Exceptional uncertainty on Brexit is currently reducing UK trade and visibility
    2019 EBITDA outlook lowered 6%
    Q2 2019 Revenue up 9% to DKK 4.2bn EBITDA up 4% to DKK 989m Negative Q2 impact from reversal of UK stockpiling in Q1 OUTLOOK 2019 6-8% revenue growth (previously 10-12%) EBITDA-range lowered 6% to DKK 3.5-3.8bn (previously DKK 3.8-4.0bn)
    Brexit is an exceptional situation currently lowering volumes in our ferry and logistics network. In spite of this headwind, we are still on track to continue our growth this year. The work to deliver on our new strategic and financial ambitions has started and progress is well under way, says Torben Carlsen, CEO.

    The bottom part of that near j8/9 is a contra flow so the coast bound carriageway can be used as a lorry park

    Good grief cheers Kent
    It took me ages to get through there the other week as came down to fish a match on Nickols Pit near Hythe
    Some anglers from the north were late for the match and were spitting teeth about it

    That was on a Sunday 7am

    I thought the 25 was bad around Heathrow but that M20 takes the biscuit imo

    Oh yeah, the roads are paved with gold in France :).
    No traffic jams, no violence, people always smile politely and say ‘hello’
    .....wake up man and open your eyes, France is just as (if not more) **** than the UK

    I know most of France and have been most places in the UK

    Not sure you have been outside Staines much.

    France on a world stage has to be right up there regarding roads and infrastructure. I don’t smile politely to anyone that would be false and too much like an English mask shrouded in a myth of English Manners

    Difference is I get to see it all so outrank you ... I think I am the boss of you

    Oh and the French play the best football and produce the worlds best footballers

    Northern France yep not for me as I live the Mediterranean lifestyle

    Oh where I am also is the hottest place in Europe over 365 days

    English Cheese now that’s another story as is car prices

    The traffic flows through France my hairy arse, I have spent many hours stuck in traffic jams in France no more than a few miles from Calais, in both directions on the A16 what’s known as the toll free corridor into Belgium, and more than a few hours on the la perephique around Paris and don’t even start on the ****ing roadworks around Rouen which by my calculations have been going on for several years, with closures at night with an unmarked or signposted detour causing chaos, and don’t even start me on all the roadworks down towards the Spanish border, don’t paint a picture of blissful motoring in France when you know in all honesty it’s no better than here.

    It's a slightly distorted view from Macron's back passage...

    Brexit Britain Wins $35 Billion Contract to Build Aussie Warships
    please log in to view this image

    Just breaking in Australia, possibly the biggest #DespiteBrexit yet: British defence giant BAE Systems has won the tender to design and manage the construction of nine anti-submarine warships. The deal represents the biggest peacetime building programme in Australian naval history and is worth $35 billion, or £20 billion. It is being reported that the clincher was Gavin Williamson’s decision to send Royal Navy ships to Australia and the Pacific. Boom…
