Also you'd *think* the Labour Party would be all over the truck driver shortage issue...

@JimfromOldham is Shadow Transport Minister

HGVs?

Trucks?

Truck driver?

Shortage?

Ah no, not that sort of shortage

Maybe not on Twitter then... Google News?

Turns out that Kerry McCarthy (Shadow Minister for Green Transport) has put out a couple of paragraphs on the Labour Party site here 👇
labour.org.uk/press/lorry-dr…

Nothing on Twitter though

Where the hell is Labour's 5 point plan to solve the truck driver shortage? Repeated and determined efforts to nail the government on this? Demand that - shock! - short term making it easier to hire from outside the UK might be necessary?

The Government has made a complete balls up, and it feels like Labour is asleep on the job - it's neither properly opposing nor putting forward alternatives

Hopeless
