In respect of PH, where do you think they go/sit/wait when they don't have punters in? Is there some kind of different dimension where they go/sit/wait, and then appear from the ether when they have a job?


Of course there is did you not note CCs observation, we all sit on floating platforms which are clearly far above the level of the grounded taxis :roll: :roll:

You pay office dues weekly, not nightly....so again all the PH are going to hand their radios back for a Fri/Sat night rank work. All PH work nights? All PH want to work the [edited by admin] you get from ranks at night?

When ranks are busy, phones aren't?


Keep changing how you word this flawed spurious argument doesn't change it from being flawed and spurious.

As much as I believe that the larger ph companies have taken advantage of the situation we are now in with the LC I firmly believe that it is the fault of the hc that we are actually in it

I was watching little house on the prarie, it was the episode where the private hire operator spiv self combusted and his serfs were free, they all joined hands and bounded and skipped across a field with flowers, of course at this point the private hire spiv's last breath saw him press a button and release lions and tigers.......they ripped the drivers limb from limb and then ate the drivers.

It was a happy ending.
