Steve, your middle name must be "Quibble." The shortage exists for consumers because they can't get the fuel, or very much very often. But you keep telling us about the full-to-bursting storage tanks with all of that fuel. It is in the eye of the beholder, and I'm taking the view of the consumer on this one.

The story has made it to the US: today on NPR they spoke about 5,000 special work visas Boris has issued to try to lure back drivers who left after the Brexit debacle. But how long will those last? Will the drivers be escorted to the border once enough UK citizens agree to drive those trucks?
