lets be fair
ive made good money from the system as it is
and i could continue to exploit this from time to time
but id rather see it bust wide open.
unlike cc's mob who would like to see it continue indefinitely

dont forget that before i got these plates the system fecked me into the ground and cost me far more than what ive earned from it
am i some crusading morally upstanding individual ........no
but ive never claimed to be....but im more principled and have better morals than that shower at the council,or the trade reps etc

But it's the system that you support that allows him to do what he has done.

Get rid of that and he wont be able to do what he is doing.



I dont support that system.....I dont think alit (or his good lady wife, who has never driven a cab in her life? ) should ever have a plate again....I guess theres plenty of qualified drivers who deserve a plate in edinburgh way before him......and who would be quite prepared to put on brand new vehicles........now theres a thought.

Why doesnt CEC have an age policy of first license? That would sort out a few things. :roll:

CC

new vehicles ffs
so if we are to have a derestricted systems which free's drivers of the burden of a plate value lets burden then with somit else

your fear is irrational.

as long as you feel you have somit over someone else

btw what about an all wav policy in your manor :roll:

Why not a new vehicle with a new license?.....or an age limit on new applications for vehicles.....other areas.....the deregulated areas you want, have them....why not regulated edinburgh?

Would that mean you having to spend £30K to get your little scam to continue? Someone will pay surely?

What fear is that?.....the fear of my LA issuing another license......in par with their current policy.

As for all WAV's.....whatever.....I'll buy another.....I've been driving them for the better part of 24 years so i dont see an issue now.

like public taxi ranks exclusively for the use of a certain taxi company you mean :roll:

or being friendly with licensing officers
or being a rep of an organization that doesn't represent drivers but owners and cartels.

that kind of principle

at least you save some money on the free lunches and biscuits eh :roll:


deflection....wow original :lol:

I dont think I'm that friendly with LO's.......and i think being a rep of an organisation that represents the interests of those drivers you sell plates too is perhaps a good thing......their mothers obviously didnt warn them about guys like you.

CC


you forgot to mention the rank :lol: :lol: :lol:

As yes....the illegal taxi rank that the council put in place in 1994 to prevent WAV owners from replacing their vehicles with saloon cars?

saying why not is hardly a reason

care to give a valid reason for a new vehicle with a new license
or the disparity between an application fee of £1500 for a new license and £270 for a renewal

when they're going to court all the time and on occasion losing it does suggest there is something wrong with their policy?

deflection how predicable =D>
now can you explain the need for a new car at first license
and the disparity between the application fee and the renewal
or is it just a cheap jibe because you think i care wether its new or old vehicles


what you fail to understand is that a vehicles does not have to go on at all the license is granted for one year and renewable thereafter.

the license can be sold without a vehicle ever having been presented.
so why did i bother to put vehicles on :roll:
