Truck driver shortage in Britain

Prime Minister says Brexit is not the cause of driver shortages

In Britain, the lack of truck drivers has led to severe disruptions, mainly in fuel supply, but there are also logistical problems in the food supply of shops.

At the end of last month, a panicked rush of shopping began across the country at UK petrol stations after several major dealers announced they were forced to close filling stations because they could not continuously fuel their entire network due to a chronic shortage of tanker drivers.
The acquisition caused fuel shortages across the country, which only began to ease earlier this week. (MTI)
