Is that a fair condition? I don't think so. [-X

Get the lads to write to OFT. :wink:

Cannot get a copy of this magazine in B&H for love nor money. Even 747474 who usually have them have banned this edition.

Looks like there is some truth in the story. Thankfully copies are being handed around the station. Looks like civil war in the TGW union. Which is wrong because the drivers need it to be strong.

Big talks of a challenge, but how much would it cost?


Considoring only 5-6 of these plates are actually on the road at present the talks couldn't have been that big. Or are we talking about the station lads with nothing better or anything to do with this.

I may have missed a clue, but I understand that if anyone is going to challange our council it would have to be one of the lads who was issued one of these plates.
I sometimes wonder if we actually work in the same town. I have spoken to many of these guys who have been issued plates and not one has said they want to challange anyone.
It seems to me that Mike (taxi talk) and a few others want to stir as much [edited by admin] as they can.

I work in Brighton, and if you work in a different place then I couldn't care less.

I haven't yet spoken to any of the drivers with the private hire condition taxis, but the existing taxis are the ones not happy.

But when ever did any of the private hire firms care about downtown cabs?

Which is why there have never been so many of us.

And just to think I actually considered joining one. #-o
