The UK Government has officially confirmed <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/news/more-support-to-help-people-to-become-hgv-drivers-among-package-of-government-measures-to-ease-risk-of-shortages" target="_blank" rel="noopener">a temporary visa scheme for 5,000 foreign lorry drivers</a>. The move, which represents a major u-turn, aims to provide a last-ditch means of avoiding an escalation of the country's supply chain crisis before Christmas. On top of the visa scheme, the government has also announced more funding for training and sent a desperate-looking letter pleading for ex-HGV drivers to return to their former profession.
