UK Government to call in the ARMY to drive Food Carrying Trucks to replenish empty supermarket shelves
UK Transport Companies are short of thousands of HGV drivers. Is this the result of Brexit sending 25.000 truck drivers back to there own E/U Countries. Have the Brexiteers shot themselves in the foot ?.

09.45 No Danny, To call the Army in has only been decided today, not last week

[archibaldy]

Call in the army or issue temporary work visas to EU drivers are the two options at the moment.

[dannyk13]

Gulliver, you know very well that the post is anoither of your usual rants about Brexit.

[gulliver1]

09.44, Because the UK is not a member of the E/U Bob. The Uk have cancelled their membership Bobbin, hadn't you noticed.

[bobbinwales]

So you aren't able to answer the question I asked gulliver. okay

[ToraToraTora]

do you have a link to this fantasy?

[Maydup]

Record number of HGV drivers are isolating (pingdemic) or off work due to Covid.

[gulliver1]

09.51.Would that mean restoring freedom of movement just to E/u Truck Drivers to allow them into the UK ? It would probably take another five years to get that law passed .

[bobbinwales]

What's the driver situation
In your country guĺiver

[Espresso125]

no one has been sent back !
lots went because money was now better in their own counties and covid + "the ping" is the main cause of the lack of drivers

Not enough info for the massive brains on here though, only here to score daily points.
