Belgian carnival float criticised

Customs workers protest over Brexit in Calais
Customs officials in Calais are operating a 'go slow' in protest over what they claim is a lack of resources being allocated to manage their post-Brexit workload.
Long tailbacks are developing as the action enters its third day.
David-Olivier Caron, the regional secretary of the CFDT union, warned that the delays being caused by the action were a taste of things to come: "With Brexit, new missions will come. "Checking an additional border is an entirely new domain. Everyone will have to declare, transporters, individuals, and if we don't have enough means, we risk having traffic jams even longer than today's."
