Black cabs are the go-slow thugs of the road. Overpriced, selective in who they pick up, arrogant about their knowledge and the Knowledge, nasty to other drivers, homicidal to bicyclists, bullying to competitors, they crawl across our cities in a puffed-up bubble of self-importance that has needed pricking for years.

But apart from that they are fine. :roll: :roll:

The twat is a former member of the Bullingdon club, best mates with George Osbourne, and a big Boris fan.

He's also a big fan of Tory party donors.

Griffin of Addison Lee top that donor list, Harry Mount lives in the same borough.

Any connection forming yet?


Apart from that, I believe most of his story is pure fiction and generally bollocks.

But his biggest fault is that he's a c***. :wink:

He lives at 62a Caversham Rd, Kentish town.

Plans are afoot.

Bullies? Thugs? Whatever gave Mr Mount that idea?

Perhaps he's recalling his days with Osbourne in the Uni showers?
