You reap what you sow mister Burnett and all your Chicken Licken “The sky’s falling in!” rhetoric merely demonstrates the bitter harvest you and your members have had coming for at least two decades
Shapps and his colleagues are no mugs, they know fine well the game is up and this situation is entirely of the haulage industry’s own making.
To quote the former PM Jim Callaghan “The sky is black with chickens coming home to roost”
DCPCFML and yourself are spot on in these assessments.
The industry for years took the ■■■■ out of the very people who keep the show running and are now crying because the race to the bottom they’ve been having has reached the end, good, hope it hurts them badly they deserve everything that’s coming.
Anyone notice, if you work for companies that kept full delivery schedules all the way through this flu ■■■■■■■■, ie foodstuffs and other essentials, that the front line workers ie drivers forkies pickers packers etc all us peasants who actually graft for a living carried on for the most part. Whilst often half or more of admin were missing on full pay. Funny how the job carried on just the same without all the box tickers.
Jim Callaghan was spot on.
