Hope its not politically motivated as working folk are trying to improve their lives by becoming a Driver .

There are things happening that are not Brexit related

For the average person life is significantly tougher than it was even a few months ago. You can't explain away the dog eat dog capitalist society for the rich and at the same deride the poorer people for using everything they have in their armoury to create a better life for themselves.
