Taxi Driver Online

Yes the result was as you say 37 to 17 thats some majority for you to overturn Jasbar hope you have a full bank account the council look hell bent on defending there restriction policy why not appeal to Edinburgh taxi drivers for a fighting fund if nothing else it will show you the level of backing for your ideas, Just out of intrest you say rentals are too high exactly how much are they on average?

The plates are actually falling in price jasbar a pal of mine bought on Monday £38,000.00 and that included a position in comcabs just some up to date info for you

Maybe no one here challenges Jimbob's views but that doesn't make your statement correct. Posters are well aware of the abuse that will come from the unholy trinity from Scotland and the support of the TDO triple alliance supporters club

Sounds to me as if both sides are digging deeper trenches and preparing for a long and bitter struggle

It seems really strange that one council can take such a strong anti deregulation stance and yet other councils take the view that they do not have the right to deny anyone the right to work as a cabbie even when there is a massive oversupply in the market

Maybe so, but if I disagreed with what someone was banging on about I would do my best to put across a coherent case against it.


I'm pretty sure the situation wouldn't be as it is if an agreement was made a few years ago.

TBH I think a 37 - 17 defeat should give hope to those lads wanting an end to restrictions.

As I suspect a year or so ago the gap would have been a lot bigger.

The outcome of the committee meeting was predictable. The report commissioned by the two Edinburgh Taxi companies contained nothing more than outdated recycled misinformation which could have been copied from any previous offering in respect of similar reports aimed at restricting numbers by any one of the current crop of Taxi Trade organisations such as the Vested interest NTA or TGWU. Quite frankly I was amazed at the poor quality of the report. Having said that those who commissioned the report were no doubt aware as were the rest of us, that it wouldn't be needed because the decision was a foregone conclusion.

However, we shall see what transpires?

The new Edinburgh site is like trying to read a plate of Alphabet soup.

Hi-Ho silver away! now John are you ready to start acting like a responsible adult on these forums or what, are you still locked into that PC rubbish and moralistic nonsense that you use as a weapon against those who challenge you?

I always found your penchant for stories featuring anything to do with female underwear a little quirky, is there something you would like to get of your chest before we start.

"if I disagreed with what someone was banging on about I would do my best to put across a coherent case against it. "

Sorry Sussex - seen that tried before and when Taylor and Thomson were asked to explain or justify their comments, and they wouldn't or couldn't then the personal attacks started. Even you must acknowledge the depths they are capable of sinking to and your silence on the matter when they do stoop so low speaks volumes

Absolute sh*te!

We've answered all the questions put to us to such a point you ran away.

Oh and yes you will be ignored.

The only place people even notice you is on a taxi forum. If it wasn't for places like tdo you wouldn't have a voice.

You are not only irrelevant but inferior like the rest of your taxi driving chums.

As I said before: we only drive taxis to earn a few quid we are not taxi drivers. There is a big difference.

You have the floor Stu, challenge away, I promise to use nothing more than fact to combat your anticipated fiction.



You find female lingerie quirky? I suppose if you wear it as often as you do, I can understand why? However some of us men find it quite appealing but only when worn by the opposite sex. I see you haven't lost your appetite for a little "titillation", I suspect you are being starved of your daily diet of sex in the City by the boys up North? I'll pass the word around that you’re available for a bit on the side but I wouldn't hold my breath because the boys down here are used to dealing right out of the top drawer.

I hear on the grapevine we have a few beefy boys from Greenock signing up in the next few days so you might yet get a bite of the Golden Rivet but only if you play your cards right? lol

I await your contribution with anticipation, as do we all, but this time, please make it coherent.

Regards

JD

I assume Mr Turnbull spells "presume" a little different than yourself?

It has always been my observation that Mr Turnbull speaks with a clarity that far exceeds anything that emanates from your somewhat disjointed keyboard? After all Mr Turnbull can lay claim to putting one of Scotland’s finest advocates to the sword which is more than can be said of you? lol

JD.
