Sick of this type of behaviour

It's a complete infringement of EU rules on state aid and should be refused immediately. What's more, every time there is a strike that hits the French ports it blocks the UK's trade with the rest of the EU. Totally unacceptable. There should be immediate retaliation against French logistics companies for this blockade and particularly heavy "inspection regimes" implemented against any French fishermen who come into our territorial waters. We are sick and tired of this kind of behaviour and have been far too understanding of it in the past.
