DCC had known for 9 months that the company were unlicensed and only acted when this was leaked to the Trade ! That is the point gus....none of this has been heard before a sherriff along with all the other dodgy deals.

Would your LA allpw you the same ??? methinks not.

Stoodtolongatthebar....Yer a FUD !!!

Whether DCC knew that 203020 were unlicenced isn't the point here.
Licences did exist for these vehicles. The interdict was to give the court time to sort out whether they were held by the same company that operated them.
203020 were granted an interdict to stop DCC revoking their licences until the court decided on 203020's case.
If you don't renew your licence, you make yourself unlicenced and there is no case to prove in court. Therefore no interdict would be granted.

Whether DCC knew 203020 was not the licence holder 9 months previously was not the reason the interdict was granted.
When the issue of which company held the licences was decided, the licences were still revoked.

No sheriff will allow someone to act illegally just because the council allowed someone else to on a previous occasion.
They will apply the law in each case before them.
The law says that if you don't apply and pay for your renewal - you are unlicenced.

anyone know when the meeting with the council will be held about capping the town

The meeting is a week Thursday the same day they are going to discuss the peugeot premier.

Are these the drivers who wanted it to be de-restricted a few years ago??

It just shows what de-restriction can cause.

Anyone got the Dundee council solicitor's email address.

I'll send him ny Breaching Human Rights report.

Meanwhile, isn't it curious that Aberdeen's solicitor reckons that it is unsustainable to continue giving their cabbies preferential market protection while Dundee's cabbies are gonna ask their council to do just that.

Methinks that common sense is gonna prevail and Dundee cabbies are gonna have to wear market conditions just like every other commercial market sector.

Get used to it boys.

Better hurry up before the TORIES scrap the Human Rights for a new bill of rights

I'm surprised Dougie's curly hair stays so flat

So in the CC manifesto an owner just carries on, losing money, working harder, and longer, getting more stressed and representing an increased danger to the public.

Or he could punt the vehicle and mothball the licence., pick it up again when things improve. That way the market benefits by reduced competition in poor trading times, public safety is protect.

CC, you really got to grow up. You're still think the business strategy of the 1970s. You're living the illusion that brought you.

You're problem is that having foisted your illusory businessman status, they're now gonna recognise you for what you really are. A fantasist.



This is 2010. You're not a mega businessman, just a wee scrote who bought a job from the council like the rest of us. You bought debt. You bought a job with no no usual employed benefits. You bought enslavement into the very system you take it up the choccie for.

We've all moved on. So should you.

De-restriction throughout the whole country is around the corner.

Get used to it. Get a life.
