News reports that during the weekend, a significant software system malfunctioned, resulting in the suspension of fresh food, cheese, meat, and flower shipments while manual paperwork was completed.
A new border station located in Sevington, Kent, 22 miles inland, is currently the destination for imports passing through the busiest port in the UK, Dover. Its purpose is to process paperwork and conduct any necessary physical inspections.
However, due to the collapse of the system, lorries arriving this weekend encountered lengthy delays and chaotic situations.
