Is this the real law or the law according to Skippy?

Grandad,

I do not see that the "Student Union" have the right to say what is what! They do not own the Campus as such so are they acting outside their remit?

The other side of the coin is to refuse to take them back to the Campus; - It would appear if they do have the right to ban cabs from the Campus...........then you can refuse to take them back - as you/I are banned. The only problem there is that you would have to be united in refusal...............O'dear

Entry is only allowed with a swipe card and I suppose that someone has to authorise the issue of these swipe cards. I would guess that the university are the ones that issue the swipe cards so they must have agreed to this company having the sole rights.

Well they all do.

Clearly I don't know the layout of the Uni, but why can't the black cab trade just get a rank outside of the campus?

Or more to the point, why hasn't the black cab trade just got a rank outside of the campus?

You make it sound so simple to just get a rank.

I have tried to what the commercial status of the Student Union is but its not listed as a charity (some are) and its not a limited company. They must be taking in a lot of money. There is no mention of it on their website.

I would also question of the Uni as well. It certainly is one too investigate more. Can you imagine one of the so called "Freephone" or "Taxi Management" companies jumping on this bandwagon (I bet they have already started the plans). Its going be like the railways...

If I were a hackney representative of a union (RMT) who's members are losing £100 (per day, week, month???), be in no-doubt I would get a rank where I wanted, and a bloody big one at that.

The problem the vast majority of hackney drivers have is that they are usually represented by reactionaries not visionaries.

No the problem is their represented by no one, normally MUGS

If the RMT are involveld no doubt there will be a kick off soon.

And as to reactionaries, maybe, but they are ELECTED so who is to blame ????????

the campus could be the size of Trafford park and you want young women to walk in the dark?

Wouldn't that be a natural consequence of the Students' Union's decision?
After all, they chose to take a bung, instead of considering the safety of their members.
Can't have it both ways.
