Trucking on radio 4

Anybody hear the story about the driver shortage on radio 4 on Friday? It was on You and Yours at 1215. If you’ve got Real Player you can hear it on the BBC radio website, second part is on Monday’s edition.

Yes I heard it Craig.
Bit naughty when they started talking about the driver shortage tho’ and then mentioned all the labour avaliable in the eastern block.

I am afraid that is going to be the next nail in our coffin. :unamused:

I feel like an old man admiting I listen to radio 2 (only steve wright in the pm) there is no way I’m near enough to retirement age to listen to radio 4

nowt to do with age nsh, broaden your horizons young man, you may enjoy it

I doubt the main audience for programmes like Dead Ringers and Little Britain is near retirement age. Give it a go NSH it sometimes makes a pleasent change from the DJ bable. :smiley: The main problem with Radio 4 is you get ingrossed in programme and don’t want to get out of your truck. :laughing:

just listened to it, you’d better get used to it cos over the next month or so there’ll be many progs like this telling us how we need the drivers and this is the way around the shortage.
its called government propaganda
