Couldn't agree more. It's simply not on that the transport system has closed. There should be a National Emergency Plan for situations like this. It should involve extra trains to the ports, every available ferry, and trains at the other side. If either IR or the British operators can't cope, then hire buses.
I don't buy the helplessness.
