Its like this M8 all PH operators will tell you they have work because they want your settle/radio money. They will receive this off you wether you do one job an hour or seven jobs per hour. If they were nice people they would say to you 'give me 10% of what you earn'. Then if you made £700 gross then you give them £70 settle. The ownus would then be on the operator to get off his/her backside and look for more work for everyone.
The reality is you will be paying out at least £350 per week before you earn a penny & will be paying 2k insurance £700 for plates etc not worth investment.

yeah and the guy who done it will get a few months in the nick max , bcos his brief will concoct some cock and bull story about depression or family problems etc and the poor driver is scarred for life , lucky not to have lost his eyesight and will be paranoid about every passenger he picks up.
