French Port Blockades


Blockades are something out of WWII or the Cuban Missle crisis. Oh, Star Wars Episode 4 too.

These ports are used by fisherman and ferrys that carry folks betweek the UK and France. So A lot of people are understandably pissed that the fishermen are doing this. I guess these French fisher dudes would rather lose their jobs entirely, by over-fishing, rather than cutting back. It sounds like they have too many dudes fishing. Go drink some warm wine.
