5000 drivers won't turn up overnight, but now 'they've' got what they wanted, you watch the problem disappear in a day or two.

Anyone who thinks foreign workers are the answer to all our problems are quite possibly the very people who got us into this mess in the first place.
No one is promoting that except as a temporary fix but any country may need to import labour given the size of its population relative to its available working population. Hence I assume Windrush. What got us here in the first place on HGV drivers is a witch's brew of many things.
