I think that Glasgow's airport could put the cat among the pigeons so to speak by refusing to allow wavs unless they are pree booked to use the airport rank
This would really get the councils backs up

That would mean no cabs using the rank, since all cabs licensed for Glasgow Airport now have to be WAV.
IMO Sneddon had a good case and lost. I believe the court made a politically correct judgement and suspect the hand of politics intervened behind the scenes. That's just my opinion and isn't worth sh*t BTW.
Point is the court's judgement now allows councils to specify which type vehicle license holders must provide, and we have to live with it.
Taken in conjunction with last year's Wilson v Aberdeen decision, councils can impose WAVs on some drivers and not on others. No regard is given to the increased costs faced by some and the unfair financial advantage handed to others.
To be honest, it beggars belief.
I know that Guss, but if the airport said they wanted saloons and told the council that they will no longer allow wavs to use there rank, until they licence them, and that they would provide alternative wav transport, would the council back down??
it did say in the judgement that the council should reconsider there rules
The airport could go as far as letting the PH in
The road into the airport is very easily blocked as well all it would take is 3 cabs
