@angiedhenin @SkyNews@SamCoatesSky I’ll gladly drive a 7.5t rigid if they give me some free training I have it on my licence automatically as passed test before 1997 rules changed. But looked on indeed jobs and not much work about for this class
@SkyNews@Georgiecrumble@SamCoatesSky Never in my lifetime as a country been run by a more incompetent bunch of lying bastards and that’s putting it lightly
@Curvy_AnneMarie @angiedhenin @SkyNews@SamCoatesSky I’m 45 and ever since leaving school I wanted to drive for a job got my car licence at 18 , but when I tried to get a job was told need to be 25 for insurance, then at 25 told got to have tacho experience, then it was CPC always barriers in way. they didn’t want new young drivers
@Curvy_AnneMarie @angiedhenin @SkyNews@SamCoatesSky Most people don’t have the around 3k it costs to get a hgv licence in this country, I wonder is it so expensive and difficult to get the licence in other countries that come to work here? Poland/Portugal turkey Greece Bulgaria etc seems a unfair system U.K. drivers get a raw deal
@BorisJohnson 2/2 Y bring in workers?. fast track 7.5T drivers already here or have got it on their car licence already b4 97 with decades of driving experience in the U.K to access a career in this lucrative industry with some training to get used to a larger longer vehicle?
@SkyNews@SamCoatesSky How about a fast track way for 7.5T drivers already here/born here and got it on their car licence with decades of driving experience in U.K. , to access a career in this lucrative industry with just a few weeks training to get used to the larger vehicle?
@BBCNews R.I.P Sir Clive Sinclair one of the best British inventor of all time. Had the spectrum 48k with those rubber buttons as my first ever computer as a child and loved it, very fond memories.
