That's what happens when you delimit a place that lets any c*nt have a badge, and limits the tools of the trade.

Ask Doom :wink:

Income support, you said?

I thought that was only payable to those not working?

But that's not income support.

Income support is basically for those out of work who can't claim Job Seeker's Allowance (what used to be called Unemployment Benefit) and can't be paid to those in full time work.

The problem with your trade is a lack of unity and weak representation. Restriction or de-restriction is simply a consequence of a divided trade. It's a question of every rat for himself. :-|

That is unfortunately what happens ,whether its jelousy over someone owning something or someone earning more. Taxi drivers are great for this, in the back of each others cabs on monday morning discussing how much they have taken and the like.Only i can spend what i take and only i know.Plenty of bitter and twisted people out there though.

See that's where you are wrong. I couldn't care less how much you earn, the more the better.

My point is that there are people who don't want those opportunities available to others, unless they pay up to £100,000.

Raw nerve? :shock:

Go back to your illusion blackpool.
That comfy place where the council always protects your investment, and the state keeps subbing the p*ss poor earnings of the bogus self-employed.

The country's skint if you hadn't noticed. They're putting the disabled through the wringer right now to claw back money.
How long do you think HM treasury is going to bankroll taxi drivers who don't even make minimum wage?

The money you spent on that plate means nothing to the bean counters in Whitehall or the policy makers on your council. Where they're concerned, you're the nobody. :shock:
If they pull the plug, your business will be worth no more than the cab.
Lets hope it's not one of those £50 sheds that most of you had last time I was there. :roll:

OOOOOOH yeah, so making it easy to get a free plate is going to help the treasury save money then is it? NO! all it will do is increase an already saturated workplace.

I'm detecting anger issues in you Gusmac, are you alright my old son, you should see someone about that, don't want you turning like Mr Bird did do we, your no good to the PH Freedom Fighter Resistance dead are you :wink:

Is it a coincidence that threads similar to this always end with your side of the discussion saying something like the above, or just evidence of the weak and flawed points you put up?

That said I fully understand that your side is under a lot of pressure at the moment, and for good reason.
