"Note, no concern for or mention of customers, nor hard pressed drivers, just his own pathetic self interest." So why do the council restrict all sorts of other licenses in this free market economy of yours, let's open a lap-dancing bar, with an all night license on one side of your house and a scrap metal yard on the other. Extreme examples, but you want the free market to prevail.
:twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

Also I notice your call for quality controls to be in place has been dropped - why :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

Notice, there's still no answer to my reasonable questions on your immediate future as you see it. :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:


Not bad from the turnip.

WKF IS Tam Milne. And what a reprobate. However, if you say he's not - not that it really matters because if he weren't he would be some anonymous coward of equally poor mental capability - then prove it. Else STFU.

And the challenge to prove to us all he's not been dodging his tax? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

The aspiration that you detest us is merely an indication of the absolute disgust we have for you. Our utter contempt for you. And, also our utmost joy that we have stiffed you. You lose. We win. Superb or what.

Now that we've derestricted, the council should put more quality controls in. But, if they don't, and it causes you more pain, then I'm happy that you suffer. You had your chance to take the message on board. I won't be arguing for anything which helps you. For you desperate TC, the bridge beckons. Just not when we're busy, eh?

Now, understand, I choose not to answer ANY questions for you. Because who would waste time trying to explain to an idiot?

As for your childish examples. I take it this is abelated attempt to engage in debate? Waste of time.

Take your Noddyland fairytales to your pals and the council. When they're finished laughing at you go straight to the bridge, do not pass go, do not collect £200, and lose the game. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Perhaps your driver would like to drive for me for a reasonable rental? I've got a couple of dayshifts and nightshifts going. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

How can you close a window of opportunity when the courts have already defined the ground rules for keeping the window open. You fail to realise that councils in scotland are hostage to the ground rules set by the courts. What do you think Edinburgh council will do when they are told by the Sheriff court that their recent so called survey isn't worth the paper it is written on?

I think you should grasp a little reality of the situation in Scotland Trevor and stop letting your heart rule your head.

Regards

JD

Our investigative reporter on Fasties has uncovered this little gem:

http://edinburghnews.scotsman.com/index ... 1340832003

Well done to Z4, and this goes to show that Taylor has more faces than the town hall clock. Since 2003 all that has changed apart from less people going out and about at night (probably as they have been caught in the edinburgh housing boom and are mortgaged to hilt) is the fact that we now have six extra taxis and a minimal amount of PHC.

OH! and before I forget Is Tam Milne WKF, Jim you could not be further from the truth if you tried...........You remind me of that other famous detective...................................Inspector Clouseau!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WKF has been outed. You could be next. As for Milne's wife? Who cares. You guys associated her with Milne. You outed him.

Anyway, it's probably certain that you're one of the Warrender Park Road cafe set.

The coven has been noted.

Only the paperwork on de-restriction is still to be done. But it's a done deal.

Take your Noddyland fairytales to your pals and the council. When they're finished laughing at you go straight to the bridge, do not pass go, do not collect £200, and lose the game. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Revenue challenge? He's not biting eh? Nothing to hide though? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Canonmills? Kicked out? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Isn't it interesting? Now I don't frequent the place, I earn more. Rather than bumping my gums about the trade is fecked, we don't need more taxis and airing concerns about how we can continue to deny drivers their rights, I'm actually engaging passengers and making money. Who's the numpty here?

No, I think I'll just continue to prosper and leave the despair for the bewildered.

This is barry. We're having such fun watching you squirm. You wouldn't believe how much fun it is.

When Jim Inch says he doesn't think he can stem the tide of applications and de-restriction may be necessary, isn't he just preparing the herd?

He's preparing you. It's a done deal.

5 years and no new licences. 2 flawed surveys they can't defend in court. Three years battling in the courts and losing. An IPL with no legal status and no means to get rid of.

Councillors about to take the witness box and face all manner of questions about the council's conduct. About Jim Inch's conduct. About the skulduggery they've employed. About his department's incompetence. About the failure of elected officials to control the situation.

As I say, it's a done deal. The only thing the council can do is buy time to allow their de-restriction agenda to deal with the situation.

But de-restriction it is. Either full or complete. Either way, plate values are history. You will have to give your driver a better deal or you're driving on your own. Guys like predator with huge debts will face going to the wall. Nothing more than the prattator deserves. Nothing more than you deserve.

Oh joy. Justice for all puts you in jeopardy.

BTW

Tell Roger to get his £50,000 notional cheque ready to tear up. And ask him what happened to his complaint to the council. Perhaps he would like to publish it on this site so we can all have a laugh !!!!!!

"Anyway, it's probably certain that you're one of the Warrender Park Road cafe set. The coven has been noted. "

Try again Clouseau - but look closer to the Mills :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P

"Milne's wife? Who cares. You guys associated her with Milne. You outed him. "

But WKF isn't Tam Milne. You're the lowlife who ridiculed an innocent disabled woman - perhaps the Disability Discrimination people would be interested in your comments :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

The Revenue Challenge - where's the PM? I'll make the appointment for you for free :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

"Justice for all puts you in jeopardy." But you'll be in the same place, and you're the one forking out all these huge fees every 3 months to the council 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)

Cooncilurs in court - that'll be the day Bumpole of the Murrays :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P

"give your driver a better deal" I don't own a plate and no amount of your repeating that I do will change that and so I have no interest in plate values. So What does the owner of CAB25N think of all this, and more importantly why do you still have a job :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?: :?:

CAB25N is it then, so now that he is not welcome at the mills, he is out picking up fares and making money, that will be why Jimbo was picking up within 50 metres of the High Street rank last night and then 30mins later picking up on the zigzags at george st/ castle, oh where is plod when you need them.

But Jim would probably tell them their job anyway, we in the Edinburgh cab trade are so lucky to have a man of such high calibre as Jimbo.

Another pratt enters the fray.
You aware of the taxi rank on North Bridge. There are in fact two of them. Are you sure you're a cabby?

Zig zags. Never. You sure this hasn't got more to do with your obsession with seeing me? Bet you wet yourself with excitement, eh?

What's the saying? keep your friends close, but keep your driver closer. How apposite. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Worked out by how much rentals will have to be reduced under de-restriction yet?

Worked out how your going to cover your debt without a driver subsidising you yet?

Worked out yet how you're going to explain to "friends" and family how your little illusion of being a businessman was just that - an illusion?

Worked out yet how your going to find time to play golf when you will need to be welded to the saddle?

Hope your medical insurance is up to date, eh :lol: Couldn't have the puir tired wee businessman soul without hope of being put back together again after his great fall, could we Humpty?

Next numpty to get personal now please. Gosh, I could do this all day.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Er no short memory.

Just Saul on the road to Damascus, which has all been said before. As has the reporting of my number plate. It was ineffective then. It will remain so now.

You see, some folks can't take on board that it's taxi drivers who pick up passengers, not taxis. Some owners, who are reasonable will have no problems retaining the loyalty of their drivers. But there again, there are the greedos who've ripped drivers off, treated them despicably and who are heading for the swallow dive.

Perhaps when de-restriction comes there will be some in the trade who will wish they'd treated the Skull and Taylor more decently. For them, the chickens will have come home to roost.

I know there are interests in the trade just waiting in expectation of picking on the carcases of the "businessmen" who fail. A little garlic will make those carcasses more palatable, it will disguise the acrid stench of bad taxi ownership and vested interest failure.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Now ask away with any other questions you have. They won't be answered, because the timne for that has long passed, but they are amusing because they betray your level of desperation.

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

BTW Wouldn't it be more productive if, instead of showing the world how foolish you are, you actually got in touch with the council and asked them what they're doing about quality controls?

BTW2 Whatever happened to the Taxi Action Plan? remember that? Wasn't that going to be the council's salvation?

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

The problem Edinburgh has that no matter what it does, its defences are proven to be inadequet. It would appear that sooner or later just like the walls of Jericho the ramparts will fall down upon their heads.

Only time will tell, it seems to me that the window of opportunity is slowly closing.



How can you close a window of opportunity when the courts have already defined the ground rules for keeping the window open. You fail to realise that councils in scotland are hostage to the ground rules set by the courts. What do you think Edinburgh council will do when they are told by the Sheriff court that their recent so called survey isn't worth the paper it is written on?

I think you should grasp a little reality of the situation in Scotland Trevor and stop letting your heart rule your head.

Regards

JD
JD. I don't fail to realise anything, I just get the impression that a trap is being laid, all covered with branches and twigs just waiting for a couple of monkeys to fall into. but as I said before, time will tell...
