Supply chain

On point 2, article on the news suggested that,while the supply chain is fine right now, farmers need hundreds of workers to help with the harvest, else food will rot in fields and supply chain will suffer. This was on Look East. Said they need 1,000 fruit/veg pickers.

This was the type of work students used to do. Don't we now have thousands of students available and bored at home?

My boy is 15. If he doesn't knuckle down and stop pretending it is already the school holidays, he will be out there soon...
