Due to whole fuel crisis that isn't a fuel crisis (honest) and doesn't exist (double honest) and has nothing to do with Brexit (triple honest) the government reversed a bit of Brexit to issue 3 month visas to drivers from the EU. We issued 300 of these visas. 27 drivers applied. 1 driver per member state. How poetic.
Downing Street is said to be very pissed off.

Yep, it just proves that we were right to leave the EU, I don’t understand why they won’t come here for 3 months ? Maybe they realise that it is British jobs for British people |

In other news, the French government is proposing to announce 5 year visas for British nationals to work in France as lorry drivers. So a 3 month visa, or a 5 year visa. Let's see who gets the applications ? |

The OP has obviously been trawling the BBC for their latest Brexit horror story and got carried away with himself. Yet again |

"127 have applied so far, 27 of which are licensed to haul fuel "
That makes more sense, I am guessing those qualifications needed for fuel haulage will mean there are very few spare drivers available on the continent either judging by the shortages of drivers that they have also. |

Don't think anyone on here has said that, perhaps you are just a bit confused? |

Have noticed the whole forum does seem a bit biased to just focusing on issues here, there has been no mention of Spain and France approaching the EU commission over there soaring gas and electric prices, the fact that there have been empty shelves in supermarkets in Belgium, shortage of drivers in china or the like, anybody would think only the uk has issues at the min reading these forums. |

Only the UK has a lack of fuel and food being in the right place.

127 according to Johnson. Based on his track record with saying anything remotely truthful, I don't exactly take him at his word.
(Then again, 127 might be the truth. He could have accidentally told the truth for the 1st time in his life.) |

Agreed, but I didn't just mention fuel, I mentioned a series of issues from all over the world, some the same as ours and some not. My point was how biased the forum is to uk issues, there were all sorts on here the other day about rising energy prices in the UK and how it was all brexit and governments fault yet no mention of France and Spain having the same problems and asking the EU commission to come up with answers, as I said the forum is biased, I get that some here only want to complain about brexit all the while and they get off on these posts in the forum, but they are not a true representation of the world we live in and are very often worded in such a way as to inflate a situation to the ops narrative. |

Eh? You mentioned empty shelves in Belgium above, implying it was caused by the same reason as our empty shelves here. Strangely, you didn't mention the fact that Belgium had empty shelves due to a strike. Despite the fact you seem to know that. |

I didn't imply anything, i mentioned a series of issues in various different places. You took it to imply that because it fits your narrative with brexit, but I wasn't talking about brexit, I was talking about the bias of the forum in general to which your response proves the point i was making. |

Nope, nobody is saying every problem is down to Brexit. But it's ludicrous to pretend Brexit hasn't caused us huge damage.
In a way, the Tories got v lucky. Whenever anything goes wrong, they jump up and down screaming that it's all caused by Covid. It's a strategy that clearly works with certain people, based on your post. |

Simple question, has Brexit helped the problems caused by the pandemic
Can we include the procurement of the vaccine?
Did we have to leave the EU to ‘procure’ the vaccine?
That old chestnut does keep popping up, doesn't it?"
Yep, I guess it all they have |

Is this the 'I believed the BBC again' emoji?
It's amusing that you think I'm a fan of the BBC. I'm not.
The 27 visas story has been widely reported in various places.
You mean the 127
127 according to Johnson. Based on his track record with saying anything remotely truthful, I don't exactly take him at his word.
(Then again, 127 might be the truth. He could have accidentally told the truth for the 1st time in his life.)
But you believed it when you thought it was 27. You see where I'm going with this
Hmmm what is better to believe? A story reported via multiple outlets that are generally fact based? Or our Prime Minister who doesn't even seem to know what truth is.
A story that you still got wrong. So you'll forgive me for doubting the validity of your posts
PS "The Times of London reported that there had only been 27 applications. Asked by Fortune to clear up the confusion, the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy confirmed that figure."
The Times reported that there had been 27 tanker driver applications as I stated in my first post
Not even sure what the argument is here. Be well, I guess."
All the posts are still there, it's perfectly simple but all the best to you too |

That's genuinely funny
We have so much sovrinty we can't trade easily with northern Ireland
We have complete control of trade deals to the extent other countries won't touch us with a barge pole
We have complete freedom to move between Sussex and Essex, subject to covid restraint in force at the time

I will simplify this for you as your obviously a little confused, we have a shortage of HGV drivers, Brexit stopped freedom of movement forcing some EU drivers to leave the UK and stoped UK haulage companies from recruiting from the EU. This has made the problem worse, not better . |

The driver shortage has been an issue for many years for most of Europe. Nothing to do with money it’s just a crap job. EU drivers came here which helped to alleviate our problem. We now have Covid and Brexit driving a bulldozer through that partial and temporary fix. Covid natural problem. Brexit self inflicted. |

Didn’t you know every single problem in the U.K. is down to brexit some on here don’t even know we’ve been in the biggest pandemic for a hundred years and the whole world as suffered financially
Simple question, has Brexit helped the problems caused by the pandemic
Can we include the procurement of the vaccine?
Did we have to leave the EU to ‘procure’ the vaccine?
No but that wasn't what you asked. You didn't get the answer you wanted so yet again you just ask another question
Did you read my initial question to Foxy? I will ask you the same question , has Brexit helped solve the problems caused by the pandemic ?
Yes I read your question and anyone with two brain cells would reject the premise. You seem to be asserting that Brexit should somehow have helped with a worldwide pandemic
Is that a yes or a no? Why wouldn’t Brexit help?
Again, your premise is that it should have helped. The onus is on you to provide an explanation as to why you think it should have helped to even phrase your question in that way
Sovereignty
Control
Freedom
But you've just listed a few things that presumably people who voted for Brexit wanted. Your question asserts that Brexit should have somehow benefited the country in the unlikely event of a pandemic. Why should it have?
Because we now have
Sovereignty
Control
Freedom
We are free from the shackles of the ‘evil’ ‘tyrannical’ ‘EU , surely that should help ?
So are you saying those things made the pandemic worse?
I will simplify this for you as your obviously a little confused, we have a shortage of HGV drivers, Brexit stopped freedom of movement forcing some EU drivers to leave the UK and stoped UK haulage companies from recruiting from the EU. This has made the problem worse, not better .
Except Europe has a shortage of drivers, estimated at 400,000 with the worst hit countries being Germany, Poland and the UK. Did Germany and Poland leave the EU and we just haven't been told
The driver shortage has been an issue for many years for most of Europe. Nothing to do with money it’s just a crap job. EU drivers came here which helped to alleviate our problem. We now have Covid and Brexit driving a bulldozer through that partial and temporary fix. Covid natural problem. Brexit self inflicted. "
They weren't forced to leave. They could have all applied to stay |

Again, your premise is that it should have helped. The onus is on you to provide an explanation as to why you think it should have helped to even phrase your question in that way
Sovereignty
Control
Freedom
But you've just listed a few things that presumably people who voted for Brexit wanted. Your question asserts that Brexit should have somehow benefited the country in the unlikely event of a pandemic. Why should it have?
Because we now have
Sovereignty
Control
Freedom
We are free from the shackles of the ‘evil’ ‘tyrannical’ ‘EU , surely that should help ?
So are you saying those things made the pandemic worse?
I will simplify this for you as your obviously a little confused, we have a shortage of HGV drivers, Brexit stopped freedom of movement forcing some EU drivers to leave the UK and stoped UK haulage companies from recruiting from the EU. This has made the problem worse, not better .
Except Europe has a shortage of drivers, estimated at 400,000 with the worst hit countries being Germany, Poland and the UK. Did Germany and Poland leave the EU and we just haven't been told
The driver shortage has been an issue for many years for most of Europe. Nothing to do with money it’s just a crap job. EU drivers came here which helped to alleviate our problem. We now have Covid and Brexit driving a bulldozer through that partial and temporary fix. Covid natural problem. Brexit self inflicted.
They weren't forced to leave. They could have all applied to stay
They were happy to stay before Brexit,
Where do you get this nonsense from!
I work with a lot of EU nationals and still do, none of them have left my company because of Brexit "
This is exactly why i ask for facts i have people down my street who are from the eu and are happy to still live here the rubbish i see posted bears no resemblance to what i am seeing in real life. |

"Due to whole fuel crisis that isn't a fuel crisis (honest) and doesn't exist (double honest) and has nothing to do with Brexit (triple honest) the government reversed a bit of Brexit to issue 3 month visas to drivers from the EU. We issued 300 of these visas. 27 drivers applied. 1 driver per member state. How poetic.
Downing Street is said to be very pissed off.
"
There's a shortage in Europe,
So.. 27 who are too crap at their jobs to get one at home, so we get the rejected coming here? |

"Have noticed the whole forum does seem a bit biased to just focusing on issues here, there has been no mention of Spain and France approaching the EU commission over there soaring gas and electric prices, the fact that there have been empty shelves in supermarkets in Belgium, shortage of drivers in china or the like, anybody would think only the uk has issues at the min reading these forums. Didn’t you know every single problem in the U.K. is down to brexit some on here don’t even know we’ve been in the biggest pandemic for a hundred years and the whole world as suffered financially
Simple question, has Brexit helped the problems caused by the pandemic
Can we include the procurement of the vaccine?
Did we have to leave the EU to ‘procure’ the vaccine?
No but that wasn't what you asked. You didn't get the answer you wanted so yet again you just ask another question
Did you read my initial question to Foxy? I will ask you the same question , has Brexit helped solve the problems caused by the pandemic ?

People aren't interested in facts. They just want another reason to get worked up about Brexit. I wish they would just get on with their lives quite frankly |

Is this the 'I believed the BBC again' emoji?
It's amusing that you think I'm a fan of the BBC. I'm not.
The 27 visas story has been widely reported in various places.
The 27 visa story was originally reported by that liberal pinko-commie paper known as…. Shuffling papers….. the times!!!! "
