petrol station brawls, and disruptions to food deliveries and ambulances have thrown the country into chaos.While the government looks to bring in more drivers with a last-minute HGV visa scheme, techies could have the answer: get self-driving and remote-controlled lorries onto the roads as soon as possible.With a 40-tonne 'autonomous' HGV lorry currently being tested at a Nissan test track in Sunderland, it could soon be possible to avoid logistics issues caused by driver shortages by removing drivers from the equation entirely.The £4.9 million trial sees a specialist lorry being driven by remote control and artificial intelligence over a high-speed internet connection.

How to fake a good night's sleep with skincare

Dr Nerina Ramlakhan, explains that while our sleeping habits have certainly changed since the pandemic first began, the consequences have not only impacted our general wellbeing, but our skin, too. "Implementing better sleep habits is incredibly important as levels of feel-good hormones such oxytocin and serotonin are balanced out and optimised so we look and feel better. A deep restorative sleep enhances the production of the human growth hormone (HGH) which influences skin cell turnover and skin elasticity, as well as repairing daily damage from the sun and air pollution," Dr Ramlakhan notes. Our skin works differently during the day and night, naturally, given the variances in what it is exposed to during these times.
