Day two of the strike by lorry drivers in Spain and it’s already beginning to bite, with shortages being reported in supermarkets and petrol stations.
Day two of strikes and blockades by lorry drivers, action brought about by soaring fuel costs, and the effects are already being felt in various parts of the country. Seven cities, Madrid, Barcelona, Gerona, Sevilla, Lugo, Vigo and Alicante have witnessed traffic queues of up to six kilometres and Granada is without fresh fish.
Small shops all over the place are suffering from a lack of fresh produce such as fish, fruit and vegetables, and the provinces of Granada, Jaén, Cádiz and Huelva seem to have been hit harder than most.
