The trade in Edinburgh needs modernising, investment is key but ask why at the individuals expense when corporate profiteers are out to take everything from control of the trade too profit, there is no respect for the individuals from corporate profiteers, the individuals who are quite willing to play the game by the inherited rules of our trade fear for the future of our trade.


I thought every plate in Edinburgh was held by a 'corporate profiteer', Reggie, or are the plates just going to be handed back when they're finished with them? :roll:

But according to City of Edinburgh Council solicitor Donald Macleod, writing while employed by another local authority:

"....Edinburgh’s corporate licence, glossed over the niceties of the legislation, the Council not concerning itself with the details of the relationship between the plate holder and the driver."

Which, if he can write that in an official report in the usual bureaucratic understatement, probably means he thinks it's as bent as a nine-bob note. :D

Of course, Skull and Jasbar could also be quoted ad nauseum on the same point, but that would be a bit obvious. :lol:
