Yep, time for a change of direction, as we are now living in the world of free opportunity where even King Tukkamandoowee of the cannibal islands of Munchinonu has been granted a taxi licence in the UK I see no reason why I can't go split atoms and play Uraniumball for a living, ok I might not know a lot about it but who cares as long as my human rights to equal opportunity is satisfied.
Now for the serious bit, over the last 6 months there are more and more area's that are unrestricted going on strike or pleading for a limit again, now I wonder why that might be, was anyone who knew the slightest bit about the trade consulted on what effect this would have? me personally although I don't want to lose out on my investment have had a positive return on it over the 12 years I've held it.
So what next? well as I'm stooopid and I know nothing I'm going to tell you so I can link this thread up in 3 years time and say I told you so, what is going to happen is eventually there really won't be enough cabs, ppl will be chucking it in wholesale and those that replace the seasoned guy will stand about a month of Joe Public and the contents of his stomach etc at 1am daily, there will probably be an uptake in some area's by minority groups, this will lead to more going the wrong way, overcharging and shabby cars, so there you have it, a trade that ran fine for many years decimated in the space of 5 years, enjoy it, you've earned it.
