The treaty has a break clause that would allow France to bow out with a 2 year notice period.

There is a reason why the UK Government has been very careful not to implicate France or otherwise criticise them for the problems in Calais. This is treaty that benefits us more than it benefits them and the only reason France continues to abide by it is so that they don't sour diplomatic relations.
