Lorry numbers stranded at border continue to rise - BBC News

Copyright: BBC

The BBC's Simon Jones is in Dover and has been speaking to Florian, a lorry driver from Romania who has been caught up in the queues at Dover.

After a second night trying to sleep in his vehicle, he said he and other drivers were "disappointed and afraid" they will miss Christmas with their families.

"We don't know what to do, I have called everywhere if they can help us and no answer, nobody knows. We have to wait."

He says his family - including his wife and seven-year-old daughter -are waiting for him to return home for Christmas.

He says he told his daughter that is stuck in Kent because the border is closed, "but she doesn't know what the border is, she says 'you have to come, I wait for you, we have to make the tree for Christmas'".

Florian adds that he has asked about getting a coronavirus test, and was told he would not be able to get one of the quick turnaround tests, but would have to wait three days for a PCR test.
