TDYER63 Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Transport minister still denying Brexit has anything to do with the lorry driver shortages despite the Road Haulage Association saying it was a cocktail of chaos. He says other European countries have the same problem, yet agrees to look at short term visas to bring drivers over from, err, Europe 🙄 https://www.google.com/amp/s/news.sky.com/story/amp/motorists-told-to-carry-on-as-normal-when-buying-fuel-after-bp-shut-some-petrol-stations-12416215 In another interview he actually tries to spin Brexit as being a positive aspect of the crisis by saying we can interview for more drivers now than when we were part of the EU .

chaff Posted September 24, 2021 Share Posted September 24, 2021 Just think of all the carbon we're not creating having so few trucks on the road, surely that's a positive, we'll all starve but at least thunberg will be pleased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Professional gardeners pump CO2 into greenhouses to make the plants grow huge. High CO2 is regreening the planet in ways these climate change wanks can only dream of. All they care about is rising sea levels that threaten humans. No care about loss of species or habitats. Fuck them and fuck humans I’d say. Plants love CO2. How do these ‘environmentalists not know this? Oh yeah it is because they are a bunch of woke twats with no education.

Hertsscot Posted September 29, 2021 Share Posted September 29, 2021 More Brexit nonsense from UK Government, GB car number plate stickers no longer valid abroad. Now you've got to have UK plate or signifier. Petrol shortages, Covid shambles, food shortages, not enough HGV drivers and all these flag waving idiots do is add yet another unnecessary expense to people to fuel their myth of a United Kingdom.

I have never used a GB sticker and if I ever take my car to Europe again, I certainly won't be putting a UK sticker on it. Have always used a SCO sticker and will continue to do so. Never had the slightest problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all, as unionists are so fond of reminding us, Scotland is part of the UK, so surely it' shouldn't matter. 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
