POSITIVES AS WE UNSHACKLE FROM EU

-

The Chancellor stated that the figures show strong signs of healthy growth and insisted that there would be no return to austerity.

There is certainly a shortfall of lorry drivers to contend with, but this can be due to Covid infections/furloughs, natural wastage, non-registrati­on of EU drivers etc. Lorry drivers are being offered handsome cash bonuses from supermarke­ts to join their distributi­on centres. Good news for our drivers!
