That's why they sell them just before their number comes up

Surely the fact that happens confirms what I said. :?



Do you think so Sussex :?:

Man buys in, invests in the trade, works the cab 24/7 to pay off loan - then comes up for chance at a council issued plate so he sells his license to another guy who wants to make a start at owning a business and the process continues. It's fair and equitable isn't it?

Why??? :-o :-o :-o

Everybody is on the waiting list, everybody who qualifies has a chance and somebody who wants to 'buy in' can do, if they have the balls and the commitment to do it

Would you say it's ok for folks who have bought their council houses going back on the list to get another one, all the time we have folks who are homeless? :?

If you want loads of plates get the council to delimited and you can have dozens.

No. But it is ok for a person to buy a council house whilst waiting to be given one; if he qualifies to be given one. Why not?? :? :?

He can buy and sell what he wants, but the issue is he doesn't get another free one.
