It's the lorry drivers this time. They are planning to block the routes into logistics hubs this year.
Indeed. I would just like to illustrate that service disruption is continuous here. It's woven into the tapestry of life and will probably always be here. It will pass in Uk and return to normal.At least you’ve got some over there to go on strike, Rich.

I suppose business will adapt. It has to, or else it will die.
There was a top agri business bloke on the news the other day, he said if farmers/distributors etc have to pay their staff properly to recruit and retain them, then the age of cheap food is over, and that the UK is addicted to cheap food. I was reminded of the Ryanair guy saying that Brits would crawl naked on their bellies over broken glass to save a quid. Wondering how that dichotomy is going to play out.
Brexit means we’ll all be a bit more svelte. There, that’s a benefit.
Blaming opponents for failure was a popular line from Stalin and Mao, leading to purges.Positive thinking and a bit more patriotism will get us out of this EU-inflicted mess. Boris has declared war in the Doomsters and the Gloomsters. Nigel Farage should be given a seat in the Lords and brought into government to deal with the EU and these malingerers. It’s they who are holding Britain back.

I lived in France for 3 years, 2003-2006 and again 2011. Never saw a gap in the shelves. Seen plenty here recently. No milk today, said the guy in the uniform.Germany no: France always. They don't seem to have their shit together as much as UK and Germany.
It may not, however, be what people would prefer to eat.“There will be enough food for everyone”- Michael Gove.

Both correct. Still, mustn't grumble. Carrots keep well through the winter in a sandbox, onions too. Cabbage season soon.It may not, however, be what people would prefer to eat.
If it’s Friday, do get get kitty kat in your sandwiches too?The pet food aisle is usually well-stocked so we won’t starve. Fido might need to move over a bit.
