Taxi Driver Online

That would only prove councils, that don't want to answer reasonable questions, considered them vexatious. As long as your first FOI, is reasonable, the commissionaire would undoubtedly rule in your favour. It's not like this is a scatter-gun approach to gathering information, for example, requesting information regarding all taxi drivers with a criminal record. The information you are asking for is quite specific. It was the council's actions that forced people to appeal against their decision, and they lost.

You might want to make that point in the FOI request and if they refuse, copy the same letter straight to the commissionaire appealing against their decision.

Play them with a loaded dice.

Opportunity ?.. You had the same opportunity that I had Jim. You just chose not to take it, your choice. You were faced with a system, that wisnae’ my making, I chose to buy in, you chose to rent. Vested interest ? Aye, we’ve all got them mate.. Just that some o’ us are a wee bit mair’ honest than others. You’ve blown yer’ chance Jim, you know it, everybody knows it,and sadly, for you anyhoo’ times running oot !

Tell me John, what the fu*k do you think you own that any right-minded person would want to buy? The trade is fu*ked. There is no future in driving taxis in any-more. It's a low paid job working under the control of scumbag councillors picking up the dregs of society. You own nothing but a bloody illusion. It's all in your head.

Deary me . . .

Best 20-word or so summary I've read to describe the job for a while. Sadly.

Skull, are you saying this because you are not allowed to drive Taxis ?. You are not fit & proper, but that will be everybody elses fault, eh...

Aye right John, I wish I could be just like you.

You'd be happy enough though Jim

ECPH meters was still on tariff 4 between midnight and 6am so you'd be illegally charging your customers. That's if you were actually working past midnight

Uncannily accurate though

Is it scottish law that if a PH has a taximeter it has to be on the same rate as HC's?

That's certainly the case here in Aberdeen, Taxis and PH all have meters and are set to the same rate by ACC.

That was the accepted practise, until ECPH were allowed to run 30% cheaper.

The law says councils set the rates and inspect the meters and seals.
Does the law say the rate must be the same? Clearly not, otherwise ECPH wouldn't have been able to do what they did.

Are they still doing this BTW?
