That's 12 guys who see a business opportunity then.

Or 12 guys who just want to contain their costs.

Or 12 guys who want to ditch their private car to save money.

Or 12 guys who are sick fed up having to drive to and from a changeover.

Or 12 guys who resent a fuel tank deficit.

Or 12 guys who are fed up subsidising an oiwner.

or 12 guys who realise their human rights are being breached, because refusing them a licence discriminates against them.

Does anyone really believe that the council in Dundee is gonna re=restrict? Isn't this no longer an option? Or is no one listening to the clear message from Aberdeen's Corporate Services Director?

You're going down the wrong track guys.

I forgot....you earn that much as a PH that you do not need to go Hack, even though you're LA is de-restricted ! well ! Dundee is de-restricted and the biggest unemployment blackspot in Scotland so, the last thing we need is an influx of non educated numpties (regarding local knowledge) fecking up and fecking about, what Trade we have left and all fight over weekly ! [-X

Perhaps you need a better knowledge test? BTW there really isn't any need to get personal everytime I post a question or a comment. I was trying to establish if it's a genuine concern or just a racist remark. People have moved around the country and the world for one reason or another since the year dot I don't have a problem with it. If it's to work and not to scrounge I don't see the issue as long as they have the right qualifications. What qualifications do you need to be a taxi driver in Dundee?
