It’s hard not to remember
On the twenty second December
In a Scania, that’s pullin' fish
Cabover Pete with a load of scotch
And a Jimmy haulin' gin
We was headin' for Dover
On the M20 way over
'Bout a mile out Smeeth Town
I says, Pig Pen this here's the Rubber Duck
And I'm about to put the brakes on
[Chorus]
'Cause we got a little 'ole convoy
Freezing through the night
Yeah, we got a little 'ole convoy
Parked up like a campsite
C'mon and join our Convoy
Ain't nothin' gonna stop its stay
We gonna sit in this fuc*ing convoy
'At least til Christmas Day
Convoy
Convoy
[CB Radio Chatter]
Yeah, breaker Pig Pen this here's the Duck
And uh, you wanna drink that scotch
Uh, ten-four 'set up the bar
Ten-Roger we're all getting wasted up here
[
By the time we’d stopped a second day
We had fifteen hundred trucks
This created a road block right through Kent
It was a total clusterf*ck
Yeah, them smokies was thick as bugs on a bumper
They even had a bear in the air
I says, callin' all trucks
This here's the Duck
We never fu**ing going nowhere
[Chorus]
'Cause we got a little 'ole convoy
Freezing through the night
Yeah, we got a little 'ole convoy
Parked up like a campsite
C'mon and join our Convoy
Ain't nothin' gonna stop its stay
We gonna sit in this fuc*ing convoy
'At least til Christmas Day
Convoy

Actually reminds me of the Dave Lee Travis spoof version of the original, but it was ok in the 70s apparently ....
On a serious note, I feel sorry for the lorry drivers, not least the ones stuck on the M20. How do the authorities manage to ensure they have enough food and water when they can't get anything else right?
There's a news story in the "Metro" that some of them have been issued with parking tickets https://metro.co.uk/2020/12/22/lorry-drivers-fined-after-spending-second...
And as if Boris hasn't got enough on his plate, he now has to buy a last-minute gift for the woman who has everything https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9076663/Nicola-Sturgeon-reveals...

To be fair there's no reason for them to be parking there, other than to try and jump the que when the port reopens.
Now they are rioting at the port because they are being told that they have to drive to the Covid testing station c10 miles away and come back once they've got the all clear.
I remember
A program that did (useless) cheap videos of current songs from the hit parade
This might backfire on Macron - many of the drivers are Johnny Foreigner types trying to get back home for "Le Christmas" or delivering British caught fish (quell irony eh!) to French supermarkets in time for Xmas day.
Look forward to your Brexit themed follow up on 31 Dec based on the parody of DIVORCE by Billy Connolly:
Our DIVORCE becomes final today
27 nations and my wee shaggy dog, are going away ....

Get on with those tax returns, DJKL. And go pick up the turkey from M&S.
