The supply chain in the United Kingdom is breaking. The problem is largely being blamed on a lack of drivers to deliver fuel.
Hilariously, the government and the media are telling people not to panic over this.
British shoppers could face empty shelves in the lead-up to Christmas amid an HGV driver shortage.
Panic buying could return if the crisis is not immediately addressed – and ‘could be far worse’ than the frenzy seen at the start of the pandemic.https://t.co/nMZz5UBrnT

The government is urging people not to panic buy petrol, with Transport Secretary Grant Shapps insisting there is no shortage of fuel at refineries in the UK – the issue is suppliers' capacity to distribute it.https://t.co/pQxhBYKPzR

They’re blaming the problem on Brexit, the coronavirus and all these other factors. In fact, they’re blaming the problem on almost everything outside of the lockdowns which is the real cause of all this insanity. You just can’t close down a nation’s economy for this length of time like you are switching a light switch on and off. The supply chain is complex and shutting it down like this was bound to cause major problems.
The media is claiming that the only solution to this problem is to bring foreign drivers into the country. Funny how this is the solution we are seen being proposed everywhere around the world in response to these intentionally created problems is it not?
Meanwhile, Boris Johnson is more focused on starting a war with China and pushing climate change hoax nonsense.
A green economy does not have to be a poor economy.
As we approach @COP26 we have a chance to save ourselves from the threat of climate change, and also to make investments that will create more jobs, growth and opportunities in the future.#UNGA pic.twitter.com/f3YSQoPQey

The UK, Australia and the USA are forming a new trilateral defence partnership that will preserve security and stability around the world.
It will also create hundreds of high-skilled jobs across the country, driving forward our levelling up agenda.#AUKUS https://t.co/W1MibdaBDc

As I’ve been saying for awhile, I would fully expect the supply chain problems to continue getting worse in many parts of the world.
