I thought Politico were a left leaning American based outfit and we all know where the Guardian stand, so those aren’t biased reports at all. I’d like to know where these reports get their “estimated” figures. When a person is leaving the U.K., they are not asked any questions so how they know what their occupation is or what their intentions are,is quite mystifying .

Thousands of potential lorry drivers have been unable to learn and pass their tests due to COVID.

Ok, here's something more at the level of the brexiteers on here:

"Retail bosses today warned the industry faces a shortfall of 90,000 lorry drivers as a perfect storm of Covid and Brexit strangles supply chains and threatens a shortage of popular gifts and staple foods."

No escape from the facts but it all goes away if you close your eyes.

If we all close our eyes, will you go away? Not sure why you are the least bit concerned as you no longer live in the UK and presumably have no intention of returning. How do they know how many lorry drivers have left the UK because of Brexit?

I'm curious about the idea that some online view Hungary as some kind of future home for whites. People wildly overplay a kind of kindred spirit angle due to race. Culturally and language-wise it's still another world and you'd just get the immigrant experience so casually offered when the shoe in on the other foot.

Germany are short of 45,000 drivers as well. Brexit again.
