Better start stockpiling popcorn while you can get it.
Will do, should be fun. Go Truckers. :dance:

We're running out of stock in the shops because we don't have enough truckers.
It's underpaid work that used to be done by EU migrants.
A lot of drivers switched to delivery driving in small vans when everyone started shopping online. They get more money and get home every night.


Going to have to pay them more for driving HGVs which puts the price of everything up.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.

I respect their right to protest and go on strike like everyone else. Go Truckers.

They're not striking here. They're doing all the overtime the law allows.

Polish and Irish mostly.
They need work visas since Brexit so they stopped coming.

What used to happen was that the EU drivers would cross the channel and take their cargo all the way to the customers.
Now they drop it at the port and turn around.

Sounds like there is new opportunity. Pretend that the cargo is brown and go take it over already.

I've no idea what point you are trying to make.
We're talking about shortages and inflation but you are talking about Afghanis and brown cargo.
I think you are lost.
