There is a shortage of taxi drivers in Liverpool , although apparently not a shortage of taxi proprietors or fleet owners.

The thought occurs that with Liverpool plates currently changing hands at £45K each, if taxis are remaining idle there is still a demand for the plate but not the over inflated price the owner wants for its rental. The over-inflated price for a day and night rental is currently £350 per week.

The thought also occurs if these plates are not servicing the people of Liverpool, as originally intended, then surely the council should reclaim the plates and re-issue them to people who will use them.

The question remains, if I am a cab driver in Liverpool who wants a plate and will work a plate, shouldnt the T&G or other group obtain one of these plates for me?

Regards

Captain Cab :.............................................. I have been looking for the answers , to all my problems . Here they are. Who is this member of the intelligentsia, this intellectual colossus . Hes proberbly lectureing, in some great university . Hes far to clever to be driving a cab.
