I like a bit of heat/controversy in an opinion, and TBH that whole editor bit was a bit drab.

TBH part 2, it reminded me of a PHM's opinion. :shock:

To answer our �� letter from the
concerned Liverpool driver, will he have to
undertake a NVQ? at the moment, the answer is
no - and in the future? Toss a coin. Will it cost me
anything? At the moment the answer is no, only
time off the road - and in the future? Keep the
coin spinning and best out of three... steady now!!

Me thinks he should toss that coin again I have it on reasonably good authority that Liverpool is to follow Sefton, Knowsley, St Helens and West Cheshire and introduce the NVQ for its taxi drivers

We all know that Berwick and Newcastle will come under one authority next year with all the boundary changes but what about the areas around Liverpool

And what about the rest of the country, this is going to be a minefield as some authority's have different rules to there neighbours

I think the following councils are merging. As for back in the saddle well that could be a long process.

Northumberland County Council
Alnwick Council
Berwick Council
Blyth Valley Council
Castle Morpeth Council
Tynedale Council
Wansbeck Council

Regards

JD
