Haulage Leaders Warn of Collapse Without Fuel Support | Belfast News
Description
Truckers are on the brink, warning that without urgent fuel support, Ireland’s vital haulage industry could collapse—threatening everything from food to clothes. Leaders like Ger Hyland say they’re still talking with the government, but protests may be inevitable if help doesn’t arrive. With diesel prices soaring and margins razor-thin, hauliers like John Ryan and Paul Jackman plead for relief, urging delays to the carbon tax and stressing that any green transition needs government backing. The stakes? Sixty jobs, 28 trucks, and the heartbeat of the Irish economy—all hanging in the balance.
