Interesting article in the Times explaining how , although there is a shortage of drivers in many EU countries, it has not led to shortages in supply, as being in the single market means that logistical difficulties can be met with some flexibility of labour movement within the SM. So, although the driver shortage is not caused solely by Brexit, the supply problem is, since we don’t have the flexible pool of labour that the SM provides. ditto problems in hospitality, social care etc.
Exactly, that is why the government are very careful to say "there is a shortage of tanker drivers across Europe", which is true, and to avoid saying "there is a shortage of fuel at the pumps across Europe" which is false.
