And if the vehicles are standing on a meter or on any other Street/Public Highway/Carpark waiting for immediate hiring on full view to the public... It's illegal !

Not sure I share that view.

Touting laws, and in many areas bylaws.

It's not a view, its case law !

So again I ask where exactly would you like the ph to sit whilst waiting for legitimate work to come through?

I can assure you that is not the case, even High Court Judges struggle to define plying.

There are 100s of different variables as to what is an aggravating factor, in respect of plying. A PH parked up on the road or high street isn't one of them.

Immediate hiring is defined by what the driver does ffs - anyone thinking otherwise is f*cked in the head :wink:

When taxi drivers drive around in circles because there is no rank space available

Why should they?

Show me where it states that taxis can only stand on a rank, other than the law that prohibits all vehicles standing on roads with restricted or no parking provisions?

Enjoy...

No Brummy cabby but
Liverpool Taxi Drivers Association, Liverpool
Hackney Owners, Liverpool Fleet Owners . Were all asked for there comments by the Planning Committee , no
comments were received.

I find it astounding that that a P H office . Could be opened feet away from the busiest taxi rank in Liverpool .

Why was Unite Liverpool not asked for there comments. I'm sure Mr Cummins (the legal brains in Unite Liverpool a very astute man ) would have had something to say.

Could it be there all running about ,dumping plates. Or wetting them selves, in case the value of there plates fall .Or talking aload of drivel about the Law commission .

That they (the Liverpool taxi trade) have taken there eyes off the ball.

Because Unite the Union are complicit with this agenda. They never opposed it in London and McCluskey, Peter Kavanagh are a disgrace ! You guys really need to dump Unite ASAP !

Couldn't give a monkeys what Mr Fleming says, it's the blokes with the white wigs that matter, and even they aren't that confident on a proper definition.

It all depends on what the driver does and says, merely sitting in a PH on a high street isn't plying for hire.
