well at least the drug dealers can afford to pay a few more quid an hour?

The police can arrest anyone employing HGV drivers in 3 months!

criminality rate doesn't seem to drop London though, it's like the Wilde Wide West. I guess people have to make a living somehow

All dodgy drivers who were trading in death are now making honest money doing deliveries of healthy food for Waitrose.

There's a MDMA drought due to the lack of lorry drivers

London is experiencing an MDMA ‘drought’ due to Covid and Brexit disrupting supply lines, experts say.

The wider drugs trade is thought to have been hit hard by the two issues for a number of months, but a recent reduction in heavy good vehicles (HGVs) transporting items across the UK is affecting supplies of some illegal substances.

The cocaine market has been particularly impacted over the last 18 months, while other areas outside the UK capital have also seen drugs shortages.
