But some interesting stuff in the first couple of pages - interesting the way that Mr Millership talks in terms of the Royal 'we' as if he's part of the restricted numbers furniture rather than independent.
And he also mentions the unfairness of the OFT survey information, so I wonder why he refused to answer questions on his Edinburgh survey

lol I ike this bit from Ian Millership.
I have had difficulties that I have had someone, who will remain nameless, phone me up he wouldn’t say exactly what he wanted
Oh but Mr Millership, I asked you precisely what I wanted.
My purpose of phoning you was to ask you to explain why you stated incorrectly in the "Liverpool survey" that "Sefton council had special dispensation from the courts to conduct a survey every five years", when in fact no such dispensation had ever been given by any court to any local authority?
The reply you gave me was that the information was given to you by Mr John Thompson the Sefton LO.
My reply to you, was that considering you are supposed to be an expert of sorts you should have been aware that no court has ever given such dispensation and I also pointed out to you that no court outside of Scotland has ever given a time frame on conducting surveys?
You being an expert should have been aware of this because to me its second nature.
"Millership"
and after that he spent ages haranguing me on Taxi Driver Online tearing reports apart which I couldn’t say anything about because I done them for a client. Unless the client allows me to say something about a particular report I have done.
So Mr Millership does read "Taxi driver online" and no doubt those at Jacobs consulting. I wonder if my timely intervention had a part to play in Mr Millership's change of job location?
The fact remains that some people don't like the truth and when they are brought to task they like it even less. Both Mr Millership and Jacobs consulting were asked several questions appertaining to the Jacobs report by myself and they were questions that deserved an answer, they weren't trick questions they were based on the findings and conclusions of the Edinburgh report. Jacobs consulting or Edinburgh council has never answered those questions to this day?
In the past, myself, Dusty, Sussex and Alex have said a great deal about surveys and anyone but in particular Mr Millership, can always challenge any reference we have made, which they believe to be incorrect.
The very fact that Jacobs falsified the Liverpool survey by suggesting Sefton had a five year dispensation from the courts, the very fact I alerted both Mr Millership and Jacobs to this untrue fact and nothing was done to rectify it, speaks for itself.
Mr Millership has an open invitation to question or reply to any of the Facts submitted by myself or any other contributor on TDO, all he needs is the courage of his own convictions. One thing I would say to Mr Millership, he won't find this forum such an easy ride as the NTA AGM in 2005.
