Raise the minimum wage for HGV Drivers to £15 as we are poorly paid

To make it mandatory to pay truck drivers a minimum wage of £15. For too long we've been underpaid & without recognition of our profession. Drivers wages have remained stagnant for years. Without truck drivers, the country would come to a stand still as this pandemic has shown our worth once again.

No one else had the authority or resources to make this mandatory, as companies and employers don’t care for the wage of the working man and are more interested in their own profit. We deserve to live comfortably with the hard work and hours we provide to making sure the country is fed, watered, clothed and has all the necessities you could possibly need. Along with building supplies and many other facilities we provide everything. It’s time to give us the respect and comfort we deserve.
