This is what Britain gets for Brexit and nationalism

OMG! ......The irrelevant comments of a brexiter..... with nothing to offer but dodging and delusion, reality bouncing off them, like hurling bendy bananas at a statue of Churchill.

Please, in future could all brexiters post their reactionary nonsense in the comments section of the Daily Heil.
That's the difference between Brexiters and Remoaners.
We've still got some humour.

I'm not sure that we can relegate anything to just one reason.

We have a shortage in the US in many areas due to the results of Covid and financial support. Has there been financial support in Britain because of the effects of Covid?
The Remoaners are blaming everything that goes wrong in the UK on Brexit.

For instance, they don't seem to realise that the hgv driver shortage is worldwide.

Petrol pumps in English cities are running dry after panic buying worsened shortages caused by a lack of truckers....

The Conservative government of Prime Minister Boris Johnson has also announced a plan to issue temporary visas for 5,000 foreign truck drivers to soften the crisis in the world’s fifth-largest economy.

Post-Brexit immigration rules mean newly arrived European Union citizens can no longer work visa-free in Britain, as they could have when the UK was a member of the bloc.

The government had resisted offering more visas for months, despite an estimated shortage of about 100,000 hauliers and industry warnings from various sectors that the COVID-19 pandemic and Brexit had combined to worsen the situation.

And the army are on standby. Only in the UK, but not on mainland Europe, which is strange given it's apparently nothing to do with brexit. More prospering mightily.
Where is Johnson anyway? Back in rehab or just ****** up?

Jest keep on blaming brexit for everything, eh?
I'm not from the UK. I'm simply adjusting your perspective as to what's going on outside your island.

There's no shortage of truck drivers around here - or food and gas shortages, for that matter.
So those problems are likely to be borne from factors that don't affect the Eurozone.

So which country are you in?
And what would Brexit have to do for you?

The army are now being trained to deliver fuel in the UK in the next few days, the government has announced. Not needed in mainland Europe.

Just to be clear - this has absolutely nothing to do with brexit.
