I have relatives in Belgium who have said that the only shop over there which they've seen empty shelves in in recent times is the M&S in Brussels.

don't worry, I think these lorry drivers are just waiting until they get enough Australian style points then they'll falling over themselves to drive in the UK
Weren't we assured that Brexit would make things better though? Looks like millions of Leave Voters were misled.... or deluded themselves.
Anyway, I think this is a fair assessment of where we are now with trade, and no one can claim we were not warned.....

Which of course is rubbish and is being shown up to be rubbish every day.
But this still isn’t all Brexit

A refreshing point of view, benefitting from being accurate and free from the radicalised nonsense usually seen on this tragic thread.
Unfortunately we have several people continually, deliberately, conflating the effects of Covid with Brexit, as they need their daily fix of doommongering/I told you so. Without Covid, driver shortages would have been far more manageable and actually welcomed as rising wages and better conditions were only ever likely to be achieved once the constant flow of cheap labour from Europe was stopped. A similar effect can also be seen across other sectors reinforcing this point. Fortunately, as we now have more control of our borders we can adjust our immigration policies to best suit our needs rather than continually swamping the jobs market with cheap Labour. A temporary relaxation may be needed until the effects of Covid (on hiring newly qualified Uk drivers on better pay and conditions) subsides.

My goodness, your mind is truly locked and bolted.

EU trade deal 'easiest in human history'
Coming to a free trade agreement with the EU should be "one of the easiest in human history" because our rules and laws are already the same, the international trade secretary has said.
So will Daniel Hannan....

But don't do their dirty work for them now and attempt to delude others. It's enough for you to live in your own 'sunlit uplands' alternative reality.....
Mixed messages then.....
Ian Ross on twitter.....
'We (the UK) are a laughing stock and viewed as fools.....'
I would say a great number of the reason are avoidable.
Building proper stops for drivers
Having a plan in place for the missed tests
Raising the wages
Listening to the reasons drivers are leaving
Fix the insurance expense for new drivers which stops companies hiring them
Good points.
These are certainly ways to start fixing it. As per the thread title though I am focused on a choice 'we' made that contributed to causing it....
Any suggestions for solving that part?
