Scores of lorries parked on road to Dover as France closes UK border

Description

Scores of lorries can be seen parked along the M20 near Ashford, on the way to Dover, as the major port is closed to outbound traffic following France’s decision to impose a 48-hour blockade on people and lorries crossing the English Channel. More than 36 countries have now begun banning flights and travellers from the UK following the discovery of a mutant strain of coronavirus that has spread across the south of England. IMAGES
