In case you didn't notice you left the caps lock on :roll:

We are dealing with a rogue trader at CEC, a man on a mission, a Frank Sinatra, a man with no name but he's trying to make one, not consulting with the trade has sent a shiver down the spine of our committee men, we are not happy :x

It is good to have an opinion, but in your case Reggie action speaks louder than words

Dougie, any consultation with your "trade" is little more than a bunch of Uncle Toms being told what the council have decided. #-o

No Skull, our opinion just falls on deaf ears, falls on those who are trying to make a name for themselfs, falls on those who think a degree is enough to dictate without thought of consequence and reason, falls on those who are being caned from an upper floor, I think the Uncle toms are those below, the quango that does what he's told, our trade has diversity, the council, well let's leave it there :wink:

Dougie, I don't know how you came up with the above but why should anyone listen to your "trade" Uncle Toms who claim to speak on your behalf? :?

I know if I were on the council, I wouldn't listen. :-|

Nothing wrong with having an opinion on a forum it might help you resolve your issue as there are many back room lawyers willing to give there opinion.
I would consult the legality of the considerable surcharge for putting a new taxi on the same date as your cabtest, the council would have to give you a break down of cost.

"the legality of the considerable surcharge" I wasn't aware that it was a surcharge, more of a good old fashioned rogering... :badgrin: :badgrin: :badgrin: :badgrin:


Oh and the breakdown would probably go something like, "Dougie, bend over and touch your toes, there's a good chap". :badgrin: :badgrin: :badgrin: :badgrin: :badgrin: :badgrin: :badgrin:

A break down of how much our trade cost to regulated has been requested, as has justification of the extra charge, there is also a mass e-mailing of councillors who sit on the licensing board, many of those sitting in this position have cabbies as constituents, it's time our trade seek accountability, work in progress :D

The implication was that why should anyone on the council listen to representations made by the taxi trade? #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o #-o
