Re: Britain outside the EU
Strange how this Europe-wide shortage of HGV drivers isn’t affecting food stocks elsewhere in Europe…

A shortage of lorry drivers could risk a “serious and severe” impact on the “efficient and timely distribution of goods” between the State and its trading partners, the Sunday Independent reports, citing a letter sent to the Department of Transport by the Irish Road Haulage Association (IRHA).

German confectionery giant Haribo said that due to the short supply of truck drivers in Britain and Germany, which seriously interfered with the logistics of its gummy bears and other candies, it is currently trying to deliver the candies to stores across the UK.

Tesco boss John Allan said "there may be some shortages", but people should not "over-dramatise" and panic-buy.
"It's very easy to make a drama out of a modest crisis," he told the BBC.

Re: Britain outside the EU
Meanwhile, the UK is now free to reform its hopelessly bureaucratic data protection laws. I for one won’t miss the cookie pop-up tsunami, foisted on me by Brussels for no good reason.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-58340333
Quote:
The UK's new Information Commissioner will be charged with a post-Brexit "shake up" of data rules, including getting rid of cookie pop-ups.
John Edwards has been named the next head of data regulator the ICO.
The government said Mr Edwards, currently the New Zealand Privacy Commissioner, would "go beyond the regulator's traditional role".
The job would now be "balanced" between protecting rights and promoting "innovation and economic growth".
