I did hear that a group of S Wales hauliers had a cartel of sorts, I won’t name names as it was only MMTM, but I was told that three, maybe four big companies paid exactly the same to the penny, it was an effort to stop drivers moving around between them as they pretty much had the market sewn up between them. The only point in moving jobs was that you would get to drive a different coloured lorry. If it was used purely to retain staff it’s not a terrible thing, but I’m pretty sure that it would keep the wages artificially lower than they would have been otherwise.
