I thought it was interesting that in countries such as the Netherlands where drivers have a Union the wages have stayed high enough to attract a steady influx of new drivers, whereas our "Unions are deadly socialist parasites" approach has seen us drive wages down to the point where we relied heavily upon Eastern European drivers, with very few younger GB citizens entering the trade - and then told all the Eastern European drivers to fuck off.
