Touting unacceptable and the proprietors orgs LPHCA LMF and others always commenting on it as you well know.


No I was'nt aware they did.

Perhaps you could post a few links to where they've taken a stance against their drivers commiting arrestable offences (Touting)?

We dont claim to have the same accesability to the disabled as black cabs.


So when you said Black cabs don't meet the requirements of 80% of Londoners, you were telling fibs again? :-$

GMB Branch secretary wrote:
What we do claim is to operate outside the west end.


So theres no Taxi's outside the West End? Yellow badges and suburban Radio circuits don't exist? ranks in Harrow, Romford, Wood Green, Croyden, Surbiton etc etc and etc don't exist then?

More Guff.

TOCU actually ignore blatant touting to enable them to spin licenced drivers particullarly if they are from an ethnic minority and we believe entrapment is a frequent occurence by TOCU


Given that 80% of Minicab drivers are from an ethnic minority I fail to see how they can avoid stopping someone who's not?

The only entrapment I ever see, is two plain clothes PC's stood at the side of the road with Minicab drivers crawling along shouting 'taxee boss?' at them. :shock:

Some time ago Roy Ellis and Ed Thomson got in a black cab ane the thieving genius driving decide to charge an illegal extra when his passengers made themselves known to him and invited him to the PCO for a chat. I wonder if he were a member of an black cab org would they expel him.And you thought we had the monolopy on the idiots bar yourself of course. OUR DAY WILL COME!


Your making up storys again Mr Pants on fire. :^o


I'll put a little bet on, that with you at the helm, you'll Never have your day. (EH?)

How many drivers do you represent? Less than 4% at my last count? :lol:

How strange that the folks bellyaching about touting and the like are the same people who think speeding over a bridge is fine and dandy. :?

GMB, as someone who speaks on behalf of phv in london, I feel that you are being a bit rude towards GBC, you should not talk to him like that.
Put foward legitimate arguments, and allow the disscussion to take place, prove him wrong with facts.
I find he is just a typical london taxi driver=know it all :wink:
Having said that, I do find myself agreeing with him sometimes, but don't tell him :shock:

But what has his non taxi/PH views got to do with his actual taxi/PH views? :?

I don't agree with his views on politics and the royal family, but so what, he doesn't agree with mine.

But I do agree with most of his taxi/PH views, and TBH that's all that really matters to me. :wink:
