Seems we set the standards for Europe at the expense of low earning taxi drivers..... Wonder how long it will be before "Human Rights" and disabled organisations get wind of it in other EU member countries!!?

Probably never...maybe the MPs in the rest of the EU are made of sterner stuff than our bunch of UK political wet drips. Its as well our present crop of MPs werent a goverment between 1939 to 1945 otherwise we would have come runners up to Jochens forebears under the Humans Rights arguments that by using anything more powerful than a Spud gun would have impeded their human rights as a country of intended occupation.

Methinks you would be right there Bloodnock!!

Crikey... and I thought I am the only one with a faible for complicated sentences! That took me some work with a dictionary!
Anyway... what really astounded me in England was the separation into two classes, which is even genetic since the Battle of Hastings. Juuust amazing! In Germany people are more or less the same, yet in England there´s , what I had nicknamed the lords and the hooligans (white van man!).
The normal people are as direct as Germans or even more direct, to the degree of rudeness, but the upper class, which is as I get the impression still the political class that governs the country more or less, is... well, I think their life has nothing to do with the life of ordinary people, that´s why everything is so bigoted in this country. Cameron, he´s so young and fresh, but what does he know about life? Has he ever driven a cab?

PS: My direct forbears weren´t involved in the war with the English, for they had some little business in Russia.

Have you tried to get a sunbed on holiday???
And is there a word for Que in German

Dunno...he's more a bicycle man that likes to block roads with his lycra clad arse jinking up and down at a perpendicular angle to that of his razor sharp bike seat...thats the secret of his political acuity.

Queue???
(That would be another thing the English taught the continent.)
Sunbed... yeah, there are still nasty fights about them... I think it´s a German habit of putting a blanket on one to reservate it... though I would never do such a thing. I apologise hereby for this stupidity.

Condolences to England about the shooting. I know how the country must feel, for the same thing happened in Germany, a little more than a year ago. Plus, it was a cab-driver and the shadow of Travis Bickle is always long. Yet, these things are in no way cab-specific, plus, they happen now all over the world, for it has become quite a violent place. Let´s hope and always work for peace.
PS: I have registered now with cab-forums in three countries and made introductional posts there. Below are links to the other two.
PPS: Whoever has got something in his mind he wants to share with the two other European forums, let me know, I´ll post it there for you.
