TDO could have faced legal action as the info is on their server.

Don't worry I'm working on how to get the info back on the internet at this moment I should have it up and running soon, a few weeks maybe?

I didn't realise they were so vulnerable to attack like this?

After putting the posts on asking for info I was getting phone call after phone call dishing the dirt on Coquhoun and Co.

Seems they have more enemies than even me.

I think that's what you call blind panic?

If they think that was bad just wait and see what’ll be coming next...Colquhoun and Co won't know what's hit them.

Someone should tell the three amigos, Colquhoun, Fleming and Mackenzie to resign, before they bring CRT into further disrepute.


BTW, keep the phone calls coming boys I need all the dirt I can get

Aye, things are hotting up here. For sure, you only get into censorship mode when the old skeletons are rattling their bones loudly in the closet.

Have heard though that Central's committee have fined guys up to a grand and banned them from the circuit for a year, pin number being deleted after three months, effectively forcing a reapplication.

How can this be legal?

Why should anyone pay radio dues for a year for no service?

Isn't this akin to kangaroo court type "justice".

Do any other radio circuits in the country behave like this?

Is this normal?

BTW the Skull is collecting information on these matters. PM him with info.

Why don't you tell everybody what these guys have done to be in this position ?

Why don't you tell everybody how these guys have shafted other drivers for their own greed ?

And if you ask most members you will find they would have had them kicked out of the company.

Ah Ross, but they didn't kick them out of the company did they?

They imposed a fine, and other sanctions.

Why don't you tell us what they did to merit such action?

aye ross and while you are at it why not tell us the plate number of your chairman , what is there to hide - he does own a plate, doesn't he?

What, you mean like Committeeman Ian Robertson using his drivers pin number to steal him country work?

If I remember correctly; Robbo ended up with a £100 fine and expulsion from the committee not kicked out of the company. The bold Ian is now back on committee serving up mountains of sh** to everyone else….

Get a life Ross!

These pri*ks expelled me for improper use of the data system, a £25 fine no less, and then refused to take payment, suspending my pin number making me reapply with the sole purpose of refusing my application. I had just returned to work after nearly 4 months on the sick. I wouldn’t pi*s on this lot if they were on fire.

Oh and BTW Ross, I've never had a customer complaint in 15 years.

So Ross, it’s alright, as a “committeeman”, to attack other members of CRT, refuse to pay fares, to steal work for your driver using his pin number, as long as you are on the committee?

This is what you are saying isn’t it?

Talk about pathological ar*e licking

Yes 'still hoping' he does, after speaking to him today I can tell you that he is a joint licence holder and responsible day to day manager on more than one licence.

This is probably in line with hundreds of licence holders in Edinburgh, come to think of it isn't Jim Taylor trying to get a freebie licence in Edinburgh, this submitted on a joint application?

For someone you allege not to have one and so nothing to lose, he appears to be doing a good job in fighting the threat of de-restriction on behalf of the good guys in Edinburgh.

A freebie?

You're having a laugh. A freebie? I've sweated blood in this trade. There's no such thing as a freebie.

You would want me to pay some scrote 50 grand for a plate that has no intrinsic value according to the council. Are you stupid? Of course you are, we all know that. Forgive me for asking such a silly question.

Remember the cartel closed the list. Guys coming into the trade have no chance of even getting on to the list. That's why it's illegal.

That's why you lose. The council can't issue from it in isolation. When they try to, that's de-restriction.

BTW You have difficulty answering Skull's questions. What gives these tinpot dictators the right to fine guys and force them out of the company? Hey, you might be next. All you have you have to do is ask awkward questions, or even just have you're own opinion.

Silly me. Ross having hisown reasoned opinion or ask sensible questions, you could sell tickets for such a rare event.

To those not in the Edinburgh trade I will try an explain the discipline procedure in Central Radio Taxis.

If you are in breach of any of the company rules and are reported..
ie. Improper use of the radio, using another drivers pin numbers, improper dress, customer complaints etc etc

You are brought up in front of the discipline committee, and you are asked to give your verson of events in defense of the complaint against you.

If the committee feel that you are in breach of the company's rules they then impose a warning (verbal or written) or fine or suspension, depending on how severe the breach.

Then if you don't agree with their decision you can appeal against it.

You then go up in front of an appeals committee which consists of a random selection of company members.

You have the right to object to any of the the company members on the appeals committee.

After listening to your appeal the appeals committee then decide whether your appeal is successful or not.

The appeals committee can also increase or lessen the fine.

Central is a co-operative, everybody in central has to abide by the rules.
Without rules you have chaos, just ask comcab drivers !!!!

But you don't want a plate do you !!!!!!!!!!!!



Nope !!!

Maybe I will answer his questions when he has facts to back his accusations. ( his own discipline hearing being the exception)



20 years a driver in Central, been in front of discipline twice.
You break the rules and get caught hard lines !!!
If you don't want to abide by the rules, then Central and City are not the companies for you !

Ross, that'll be you well used to taking it up the choccy box while asking Bumble for "some more" then?

I think it's called masochism.

On the contrary Ross, I thought the new plates in Edinburgh cost more than the old ones
