Re: Britain outside the EU

Here's a thought, maybe ARLA, a company that deals with deliveries to supermarkets (and we're pretty sure supermarkets won't pay top notch for this), pays their drivers a pretty low wage compared to other haulage firms.

As an example, taken from this Wiki page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arla_Foods_UK

Quote:
According to the BBC, in August 2015, farmers were paid less per pint of milk by Arla than by supermarkets that buy directly
Assuming they do pay low wages, let's also assume that the drivers, seeing a shortage in other areas of haulage, have buggered off to better paid jobs, leaving ARLA in the lurch trying to complete their contracts with those really nice and considerate supermarkets

All assumptions of course
