British citizens have been banned from driving across France to homes in other European Union countries, Eurotunnel has warned.Eurotunnel Le Shuttle, which transports vehicle-carrying trains between Dover and Calais, said the decision was made by the French government.
Non-essential travel from the UK to France has been banned since December 18 in a bid to limit the spread of the Omicron variant of coronavirus, but several exemptions have been in place. The firm advised passengers to visit the website of the French embassy in the UK, although its travel information has not been updated since December 20.It comes as both France and the UK posted record increases in Covid cases.- shattering the previous highest daily number of 179,807 on Tuesday.
It means that more than two French people are testing positive every second, Health Minister Olivier Veran said, who warned that 70% of those hospitalised in intensive care in Paris public hospitals aren’t vaccinated.
Another attack on British people from France.. just because we won't give them more fishing rights. And are trying to stop illegal immigrants entering UK via the Channel.. France! Please remember WW2. who came to your rescue! Mmm UK.
You voted for this!
Elsewhere it's reported the ban was lifted for the remainder of the holiday period...
Nothing to do with brexit 🙄 pandemic related
Hahaha tell it to someone who voted for Brexit, everyone else knew stuff like this.
Thinks the French are a little late on trying to limit the spread 😂
So you CAN control your own borders whilst being a member of the EU. It’s almost like BorisJohnson & Nigel_Farage were telling lies for their own toxic ends. As per.
So they can stop Brits but not economic migrants?
Yes, and rightly so. Haven’t these people not heard that there’s a pandemic so travelling is not sensible ?
Brexit Brexit Brexit oh what problems Brexit brings 👇
😂😂
'British migrants' 😉
Absolutely hate the french with a passion
Of all the have their cake and eat moments of Leavers, expecting to benefit from FoM when they did nothing but whinge about it has to be the most special.
Just that muppet Macron being is usual ( i hate Britain) self. The sooner he is voted out the better France and the rest of Europe will be.
Fly instead.
Glade I didn't vote Brexit because we was F before and F know so nothing changed
Why the surprise or making out it’s like evil? If you’re banned from entering because of your country’s Covid status, you’re banned! Full stop. No sneaky trips through. Not news ITV
Stuff em I say I wouldn't visit France again if that's there attitude.well we should do the same and when they need help in the future the can go swivel. Considering their in a far worse state than us it's a bit rich. miserable government.they forget who helped em in the war 😡.
Great for BrittanyFerries as they operate direct services to bilbaoport and port_santander from britainsocean (Santander) and PortsmouthPort (Santander &. Bilbao).
WHO KNEW YOU COULD TAKE BACK CONTROL WHILE IN EU.
Welcome to Tory Brexit
Yet the UK is still allowing every national and every variant into the country! ‘LET THE BODIES PILE HIGH’🇬🇧
Considering France’s daily cases are higher than the U.K. yesterday this really isn’t going to have much of an impact to their numbers.
Brexit is a bitch
Hahaha! Another Brexity bonus.
🤣gotta love the French
Excellent
Shame the couldn’t stop the Germans so easily in WW2
Im in Spain. Need to drive home to Britain by February to work. No Spanish ferries availible (I have a dog) how do i get back now...?
Are any other countries with high positive cases banned from entering ?.
Brexit, the gift that keeps on giving 😂
We are a 3rd Country now and this is how it works for the whole of the EU. They all have sovereignty to close their boarders. Brexiteers voted for this after believing the lies told by the leave campaign.
“Driving home from Christmas, non.”
WTF?!!!
