As the UK economy begins the long road to recovery, many businesses are wondering: where have all the workers gone?
Covid has seen hundreds of thousands of employees lose or leave their jobs, and in many cases leave the country altogether. From farms to factories and hospitality to haulage, many industries are warning they won't be able to bounce back unless Brexit rules on workers are relaxed.

I don't see why are people complaining. They've got exactly what they voted for

People are starting to realise that all these rich well off people have got their luxury lifestyle not via their own ability but on the backs of the people who are actually working hard for low wages 😳

Brexit voters “foreigners get out of my country. You are driving down wages”

I remember driving through several local rural areas and some further afield during the Brexit Campaign Season. Without fail, farmers fields had often quite large official “Vote Leave” placards. It was an impressive display of Great British Pluck from our sons and daughters of the soil.

Whenever you read "worker shortage", read "shortage of decent wage".

The meme "all of the foreigners have gone away now daddy, how come you still don't have a job" springs to mind.

Much like restaurants here... it is not a shortage... but a business model built on underpaying the people who do the actual work realizing they don't have easily exploitable pool any more.

There isn't a shortage of drivers. There are a shortage of companies willing to pay drivers a reasonable rate.

"Lack of drivers" you say? How is that possible in "Brexit-land"? I thought that driving a lorry was "a dream come true" for every English person....

As a man from Bosnia working in Austria and Germany, I never understood why anybody in their right mind would want to go to the UK and work, where you are hated, paid less and have problems to obtain visa's. In Germany most people welcome you, jobs are all around and pay well, and its really easy to get a visa. NEVER go to the UK, even as a tourist I found it expensive, full of rain and clouds and bland. Holiday in Spain Italy and Greece. Ciao
