Ritchie,
It just takes longer now. We went over to Denmark recently by car and your passport needs stamped, and we were asked questions about where we were staying, finances etc. In the past you just got waved through.
At Dover it's much more problematic because of the sheer volume of traffic. There has always been french inspectors that side because of the channel tunnel etc....The actual port of Dover needs huge investment or this is going to be the new norm. Especially when the new EES system comes in.
