The Port of Dover could face significant summer disruptions under the European Union's new entry and exit system, according to The Guardian. UK MPs are warning the technology is struggling to handle peak holiday traffic, with potential for miles of tailbacks and severe congestion. The home affairs select committee chair, Karen Bradley, has urged the government to pressure French authorities to either fix the system or suspend checks by next week, before the holiday rush begins.
