They put up an offer for 5,000 EU drivers, they got well under 200.
There are multiple reasons, Brexit being the biggest.
Seems that the number might have been as low as 20.
knighty, the issue is we had the drivers, the UK could have just allowed them to continue their work without issue. This is more to do with populist and racist people who support the Tory party than the UK needs.
To remain popular the Tories are creating issues with the EU that hurt the British economy far more than theirs, and in many instances give the EU a massive boost that used to come to us. Worse the EU aren't trying to harm us, it's our own government!
