With little under a hour till voting closes.

Will it be a close ballot ie 48% for to 52% against or will it be a straight forward no deal.

What makes you think it's not going to be accepted? All the signs are that it will be accepted, and that's what Unite are strongly recommending. I'd be shocked if it wasn't.

Let's hope both parties keep to their part of the deal.

Whilst it's great that this appears to have been resolved, it won't change the fact that there's still driver shortages, right?

Will this make it easier or harder to employ more drivers? Given the fact that it will cost NX more to do so now.
Local Routes: 002, 39/39A, X21, 46, 76.
Localish Routes: 18, 23, X22.

I think that has been answered in the news already. 392 applications in a week was the news story
