More than 4,500 trucks left stranded in Dover have returned to France, according to UK Transport Minister Grant Shapps.
Earlier this week, France banned lorries from entering the country from the UK amid fears drivers could be carrying the new variant of COVID-19 that has spread across parts of the island nation. In the ensuing blockage, thousands of lorries were diverted to queue at the disused airport in nearby Manston.
