Closed petition UK and European lorry drivers/hauliers safety from clandestine attacks

Closed on

There is armed attacks from clandestines trying to board vehicles daily on drivers and there vehicles in foreign ports en route back to the United Kingdom.

What action we would like you the government to take:

Abolish fines imposed by ukborder force on to drivers and hauliers..you will find more co operation if we work together as we wont be in fear of approaching them.

increased pressure on the french government to get there various forces to assist us in securtiy and getting the clandestines out..as there not doing a great deal and it seems we only have 2 choices either get them out of the vehicles where they are armed or go to uk border force and face huge fines...after all we are working men and women trying to make a crust

were just simple people looking to be safe in our workplaces from violence and paying fines even after we have doen all we can do i.e checks sealing trailers and check lists...there still getting in
