Strike

Anyone any clue what the actual mission statement of this supposed strike might be, assuming there is a purpose to all this and not just to show how important we are to the distribution of goods.

Unless there’s a proper plan and end game in sight all we’d do is antagonise an already anti lorry public and increase calls for immigrants already licenced to drive large vehicles to be allowed in.

By all means if you’re negotiating better terms and conditions then strike action must always be a last resort possibility (that aired possibility is why we don’t and won’t have driver facing cameras), but there has to be a purpose, i’ll re-iterate once again, don’t be too keen to jack in a perfectly decent job to chase some temporary high agency rates, better to form a union and negotiate sensible writ in stone terms for permanent jobs whilst things are difficult for the industry re driver supply and you have a stronger bargaining position.
