Cap In Hand Boris
So BORIS and his Brigade of Brexiteers have had to appeal to the EUSSR for their help to get the UK out of the Mire because Britain can not stand alone any longer.
In the run up to Christmas Britain is asking The E/U for A Loan of 5,000 poultry workers,10.000 Hgv drivers and other workers. But this will be no where near enough,.. as at least 100.000Workers of all types are needed to pull the UK out of the Desperate situation it is in ....But these crucially needed workers will be kicked out of Britain again on 24th Dec. How do you think the E/U will respond.

Some numbers in the link below. But it’s all fine as I learned earlier because it’s the businesses fault that they can’t handle Brexit properly and it’ll only be a generation till it’s all sorted anyway.

Perhaps you point readers to the place where you learnt that. Better still, quote the passage which you believe said that and let them place their own interpretation on it (as you have).

In a report released this week, European Road Freight Transport 2018, the supply chain analyst shows that in just six countries – the UK, Germany, France, Denmark Sweden and Norway – the shortage of drivers adds up to 127,500.
The UK leads the way with a shortage of 52,000 drivers, but is closely followed by Germany at 45,000 vacancies – with predictions that this could increase by a staggering 28,000 each year.
The report says: “In Germany, the DSLV transport union reports that in the next 15 years, two-thirds of drivers will retire. Germany is facing a shortage of 45,000 truck drivers, with around 30,000 leaving the profession every year. This compares with only 2,000 people receiving truck-driving qualifications each year.”
France has a shortage of 20,000 drivers, while road freight associations in Sweden, Denmark and Norway report shortages of 5,000, 2,500 and 3,000, respectively.
This, of course, leaves out more than 20 countries in Europe where numbers have not been collected – although it is safe to assume that similar trends are likely across western countries, where driver numbers have been on the decline for the past two decades.

NJ it's what you said. Agreed it doesn't sound great if it's what you believe then own it, don't try and say you meant something else!
NJ: //The fact that they [businesses] have not prepared for it, or not seemed to believe it would happen is not the fault of the government. Companies run their businesses, not the government//
= "it’s the businesses fault that they can’t handle Brexit properly"
NJ: //Brexit is a long game and it will be a generation rather than a fortnight before the true advantages are fully realised//
= "only be a generation till it’s all sorted"
