Working conditions are way better for drivers in the EU. They have rest stops with restrooms, for instance, so they don’t have to do their business on the roadside. The UK government is just showing how out of touch and incompetent it is if it thinks there will be any takers. A bigger problem is the horrendous backlog in licence applications at DVLA that means new drivers cannot start working. Finally, the IR35 tax treatment of many drivers means they would actually lose money by driving.
