A free loader in the taxi trade is a Taxi owner who does not drive Taxis. does not fix Taxis does not, service Taxis. Does not even wash Taxis, in fact does not get his or her Hand dirty at all. In short a parasite. I would list the top twenty in Liverpool. But I would probably be sued. Are you like one of these parasites captain?(don’t think so ) Don’t pretend you don’t know who they are. You do! When quantity controls were introduced in Liverpool it was not envisaged that some one would own 70 of plates. You and Mr. T are not Taxi barons you’re your wannaby Taxi Barons. All that groveling and sucking. They will never let you be one of them . Trevor would have to get rid of his Spanners and overalls . You would have to stop driving . There upper middle class and criminals . Your working class and honest . The two don’t mix .Streetcars.

Thank you for your input streetcars.

I am not going to condone what others can and do do.

Taxi baron? hardly, even when my area was regulated we had far more company owned PHV's in the fleet than company owned HC's.

Excuse me if I am incorrect, but I think the people you refer to actually despise me for writing in a magazine what you have written on here.

As for stopping driving, i dont think so... i enjoy driving its the best part of the job i do, in fact i'd rather drive than do the office stuff because I dont see it as work.

Wannabe taxi baron? errm I dont think s, I'd rather have a radio circuit with 50 vehicles all paying me money :wink:
