Autogas Lpg

From what I've read it seems that it is due to a shortage of HGV drivers.

I don't think there is a shortage, more of a distribution problem.

That’s my understanding too, Rob.

I guess business decisions like this supplier might be adding to any supply problems?

I read the article and ,if I understand correctly, MFG are owned by the same US private equity group that own Morrisons. MFG are withdrawing lpg from their forecourts which include Esso, Texaco and Murco. By inference then, I suggest, they will also be withdrawing lpg from Morrisons.
Possibly a bleak outlook then, but I am more than happy to be corrected.

Doesn't sound good but , I assume , if they have the product they'll want to sell it ?

Maybe restrict outlets to push up price ?

Always possible . Don't use an awful lot , especially in summer , so price not too crucial . Huge [percentage wise] variation at times

LPG mostly continues to be priced between half the price of petrol and half the price of diesel, as it has been for years. Morrisons is the cheapest diesel round here, but not the cheapest LPG.
