Milton keynes station is faar worse
A few friends of mine lost there jobs in a factory/Warehouse few months ago and they couldnt find another job so they said lets jump in the taxi trade, I told them its finished nothing left in it and even explained how much drivers are making also they see the train station loaded with cabs everyday but they didnt listen they each bought a cab and plated it 1 of them bought a 2013 TX4 cab and now doing 12+ Hours for £40-50.
Thats what the problem is when people loose a job theyll come into the taxi trade no matter how dead it is and it just ruins it for Cabbies like me who been in the trade for all my life and know the trade inside out not like these guys just getting a free Plate and comming in and when finding something else just leaving.

Totally agree with that post, 3 cars left our system this week due to the driver just not seeing the point, one had started before me which is saying something but financially can't see the point,
