Supermarket shortages
Discussion
Are we in for supermarket shortages now? Was in Sainsburys earlier, a lot of bare shelves and a lot of basic stuff out of stock. Baked beans, ready salted crisps, tinned tuna, Kitkats etc etc.
I was chatting to the checkout lady and she reckoned there were big problems with a lack of truck drivers which was adversely affecting deliveries.
Wondered whether other places were experiencing the same?

I think they must have back up drivers delivering already, as I witnessed yesterday when one drove into the wrong entrance that's not designed for articulated lorries and it had to reverse back out on the main road stopping traffic, before driving back up the road and turning into the delivery entrance.

The papers have ramped it up. Pics of bare shelves, usual lies.
I wasn't really concerned at all. Now George Eustace says 'there is no problem and plenty of stock' etc I'm extremely worried there is actually fook all and a massive problem looming because an MP and usually a minister cannot open their mouth without uttering a complete and utter lie.

People say that on their way to the shop to fill the boot of their car. After they've done their shopping it will be a different story.Now George Eustace says 'there is no problem and plenty of stock' etc I'm extremely worried there is actually fook all and a massive problem looming because an MP and usually a minister cannot open their mouth without uttering a complete and utter lie.
