I don't need to. I was at Palestra in person last Jan 2011 shortly after leaving the committee of one of the recognised trade organisations. I was told personally by a senior member of John Masons staff that the figure was 107,000 and rising with no talk of them closing the doors. That was 18 months ago...

I will know if you are telling the truth... Just quote me verbatim the paragraph containing the figures.... This shouldn't be a problem....


I'm not reproducing the email, but you can believe what you wish, you tend to believe what you choose to believe anyway.

How's that UCG membership coming along? At last a group standing up for the London Cab Driver =D>


Not asking you to produce it. Just quote the paragraph and the figures from the correspondence verbatim and tell me who wrote it ? Why should this be a problem ?

Because I'm not a performing dog who is going to jump when you say jump.....you want the evidence, you ask TFL or better still look at the DFT statistics that show you that your 50 - 70 thousand vehicles out.....in so far as I'm concerned, I've included it within my response to the Law Commission. :D

I'm not interested in the DFT statistics. I'm more interested in the content of the email from TfL, the paragraph in the said email containing the statistics and who you corresponded with ?

I'm sorry but you bragged that you had the statistics ! Now tell us all who at TfL supplied you with them ?
Why are you being so aggressive and defensive ?

Any chance of you posting a copy of your response to the Law Commission Consultation ?

I would say that this sets a new tone on TDO, I'm surprised that the founding father(s) have not removed it.

If you know any thing then you should know that I work in the city with the most mate. But I'm not going to indulge you, it's bad taste and if you don't get it then you're a Lunn as well.

Why are you embarrassed and ashamed to name your home town. I'm a Londoner and an all London green badge...

Tuttah Lunn ? You gotta be another "Toby'" North of Hadrian's Wall !

I hope all GBC's arent like you, yours is not the way to behave, obviously satellites are an issue for you, but not like how you make it out to be.

As for me I'm all over TDO

You mean that cartoon thing that was there a while ago?

On the contrary, you should know it's about par for the course.

And do you think there's someone sitting waiting to moderate any iffy posts 24/7?

Mr LU edited his post at 00:43, just a few minutes before your own post. The cartoon wasn't there originally or I might have mentioned it in my post.

But as I keep on saying, moderation is not my responsibility.

Anway, the graphic seems to have disappeared now. I certainly can't see it.
