Dover ferry delays: 'There's no information'
Passengers are facing major delays at the Port of Dover due to increased French security checks.
Roads leading to the port in Kent are experiencing heavy traffic and Kent Police have advised motorists to expect "very, very long delays".
Richard Beeken has been waiting on the A20 near Dover since Friday evening.

At what point does "delay, replay" clic in?
