It would appear that despite the world ending in Wirral when their council de-limited, it in-fact didn't. 
According to the latest SUD survey there is still evidence of significant un-met demand. 
No-doubt the chaps at OFT and the NCC will be pleased to use that as evidence when OFT 2 starts soon, to put the doom-mongers in their wicked place.

It's funny Sussex, the way I understand it is that the wirrel delimited despite the fact that the two previous surveys had stated that there was no unmet demand, and now after being delimited the survey finds that there is a unmet demand, and one other thing before you call me a liar, I was at council meeting when they delimited http://www.taxitalk.co.uk/pdfs/Taxi%20T ... 202007.pdf |

I only wish I could have been there to celebrate with you.
But don't the good folks driving cabs in Wirral realise that if their aren't enough cabs to meet the demand, despite de-limiting, then they need to up their prices.

I see you didn't respond to the fact that the unmet demand is worse now |

I'm not doubting that point, but are you saying the market is always the same? I think an increase in punters is a good thing. Maybe this is crystal clear evidence of 'latent' demand.

Maybe he now has the same opinion of surveys that I've always had.

I think they are all bent/flawed/corrupt and a complete waste of taxi drivers money. Old and new. |

Strange that, I have heard the same view expressed regarding private hire drivers |
