Impact of Storm Darragh has shut route between Wales and Ireland, limiting deliveries of cheese, beef and stout
Ferries from Holyhead port in Wales, battered by Storm Darragh 10 days ago, are to remain closed until mid January at the earliest, in a major blow for 150,000 passengers in Britain trying to get to Ireland for Christmas and for deliveries of Guinness.
The port in the north-west of Wales is the second biggest roll-on roll-off ferry in the UK after Dover and the continued closure will have a major impact on deliveries of cheese, beef and stout.
