OT Shortage of lorry drivers? What is to blame?

[John2]

It's the kind of carry on that erodes us as a society and as people - we are better than this, surely?

I'm really not sure we are to be honest.

I'm angry at what this country is becoming and has become, and that's true for a lot of people of my generation. Sometimes human nature and anger just lead to certain unavoidable behaviours.

But highlighting the consequences of giant mistakes isn't just a just a gleeful vent, politics is constantly changing. Bad ideas need to be punished in the court of public opinion so society can recognise them and fix them.

I'm hoping we're going to see radical change. The younger generation gives me hope for the future of this country.

Yes, bad ideas like letting in immigrants and wasting time on divisive issues like black lives matter.

The country is going down the pan.

I think we've found something we completely agree upon.

The personal abusers tend to be from certain posters who can't counter arguments in a logical, well researched way in my experience. Its just a "thats my view feck off if you don't like it". Thats fine of course but it gives an argument no substance and carries no weight at all because it has no evidence to support it. Ho Hum...

Of course the vote for Brexit won the day but that dunt mean it is right or that it will be right does it? Only history will tell us that. It could work out ok but it could turn out to be a monumental balls up.

dunt mean it's right?
It was a democratic vote.
What's not right?

[rolymiller]

Doesn't mean it will turn out right. Millions put Hitler in power but was it the right decision to do it? I accept that brexit won the democratic vote-well sort of which is another argument-but I still don't think its gonna make the average bloke on the street any better off in the long run. We shall see won't we...

You told us you didn't vote, Roly. It's bit rich to snipe at the choice of those who did.

Didnt have my choice on the ballot paper Kerr but that's democracy for you! I had to put up with the simplistic in or out.
