    Oh goodie, the end of labour shortages.

    Bojo to allocate 20,000 family resettlement places per year for Afghans in addition to refugees. This will help alleviate the UK’s labour shortage. (BBC World Service).
    Yes I can just imagine Afghans flocking to pick fruit and veg on UK farms.

                Thought they were more the "Toyota with M1 machine gun mount" trained rather than truck drivers.

                  Me too. It'll be a way out of the country to life of relative luxury with free healthcare and so on.
