Some white drivers may be averse to taking Asian passengers, let's see what happens then!

Well, I'm guessing if the boot was on that foot, then our PC government would cut off your leg to remove the boot even if it meant you'd never walk or work again.

No I think CC is right the DDA is the law of the land if you want to work in the UK you must comply with it or work in an industry where you won't be affected by it ! simples


TBH if they are refusing jobs on religious grounds, they are obviously mental as they believe if invisible beings that live in the sky who are watching and judging their every move - if this is the case the license should be revoked for mental health reasons.

A Hailo spokesman said it was making a £250 donation to Guide Dogs for the Blind after the blunder.

In a statement, he said: "Hailo is committed to providing a service that is 100% safe, 100% accessible and 100% reliable - which includes helping passengers with accessibility issues get safely and quickly from A to B. This incident refers to a Hailo Exec minicab driver, a service that we no longer offer since going back to black cabs only on 1 October.

"When we had found out about this case, we acted immediately and removed the driver in question from our network.

"As a gesture of goodwill and to part of Hailo’s commitment to helping people with accessibility challenges get around the cities they reside, a £250 donation was made to the charity of Sean’s choice, Guide Dogs for the Blind."

At least Hailo are saying the right things but are the LA going to take action ?

just a honest question mate, how long you been a taxi driver?

I meant what I said. An Asian driver refuses to take a guide dog and expects to get away with it "religious grounds" or "I don't like dogs".

An English driver refuses to take an Asian (insert other race), and the race card is played.
