Tory MP John Redwood offered a solution to the HGV driver shortage and it immediately backfired



For a second time, Tory MP John Redwood appears to have missed the point entirely when it comes to the HGV driver shortage - and people have been duly roasted for the ridiculous solution he’s offering.

I won my HGV license from a box of cereal. No training, no experience straight out onto the roads working, anybody can do it Clown face

Aye driving your own fiesta to deliver to households in the local area is exactly the same as driving 44 tonnes long distance

On line companies have attracted lots of extra drivers to do parcel van deliveries. HGV employers need to learn from them how they did it.

This 🤡 is comparing an Amazon van with a petrol tanker. It’s beyond belief

Business can solve the driver shortage by raising wages and improving working conditions. Just recruit and train some more.


Not exactly the easiest thing to do in the middle of supply-chain problems.

After these two suggestions missing the mark, who knows what other ideas Redwood has up his sleeve.
