Well Gusmac, how would the free for all fit in with the integrated transport plan?

How would the free for all help the Air Quality Management Area that was created in Edinburgh,the 2010 targets have been set now.

Trust you lot to see equality issues as a purely financial concern.

So I have never thought it sucks to be quite honest with you, another reason was that when the bus services were first deregulated in the Thatcher years it brought absolute chaos to Edinburgh City centre.

It was common to see five or six of the same services running nose to tail like a train, or huge queues of buses at the stops, people just wanted to get on a bus and go home in a reasonable time.

We don't aspire to be like you, we're way above you -you're the kiss a*s Saf.

Nothing changed there (not thier) then Ali ! wrong again ! hand back the tenner !

As for the rest ... you have no credability in anything you say !! Now what was the word you used for people that sell their plates ?..... Oh yes I remember "SCUM " now crawl back under that stone !!!!

Air quality management? I don't give a feck for air quality management.

This is just greenbabble when it suits the council. And when it suits numpties. None of this is proved. It is just trawled out when nothing else can be thought of to justify ripping us off. No one is saying bring in trams to remove taxis from the road. Why not?

What I care about is earning enough dough without being chained to the taxi.

I don't see it as a purely financial concern - you do.
It is just one of many factors.



Do you really think you are fooling anyone by playing the green card?
If you really were a greenie, you wouldn't dream of polluting Edinburgh's air by driving around in such an environmentally unfriendly vehicle as a black cab
Are you now advocating electric cabs or hybrid engines?
Not having to pay £50k would make them more affordable.

Or are you just trying to cover the real reason behind your argument -
The £50k your ars* is hanging out for.

Sorry Gusmac but thats the Law and Taxis are a very small part of it, EuroIV standards were the desired solution in the plan.

Page 36 has some details for the Taxi trade, of course they never got to bring in the toll charges, so my point was not really about the amount of taxis, rather it was about the emission standards of the vehicles that are used.

The people who are effected by it wont thank you for it, do they have no equal rights?

Of course I'm not sure you can class that as playing the Green card, probably more a public health issue really.

Look at it like the passive smoking argument.

Passive smoking? You believe that shecht?

How many people do you know died of passive smoking?

And, before you kick off, we all know about the exceptional case of the trumpet player.

My generation was reared in smoking households. So why is that the whole generation is not dropping like ninepins because of all the cigarette smoked inhaled?

Like the green lobby tells us the CO2 is pollution. Yet the planet creates CO2 naturally. It is essential for the photosynthesis process, where oxygen is emitted as a byproduct.

Couldn't be the problem with CO2 is because we've chopped down swathes of trees could it? The deforestation of the Equatorial Rainforest, natures CO2 processing machine?

Government isn't daft. It knows that by creating moral panics centred on studies by organisations whose very being depends on the existence of the problem they've created, is the way to divert the attention of the masses from the really important issues like war, famine, taxation, poverty and power. Saps like you Stu buy into this without questioning it. How sad.

I suggest you seek solutions to our real problems like Health, Education and social need before you invest your energy into satisfying the incredible.

If you drive with your window open just a couple of inches it acts as a chimney, and if you open both front windows while mobile any smell is gone in seconds

You think I cared about the passive smoking nonsense, after all the stuff I posted about it.I still smoke remember.

But to deny smoking is anything other than damaging to your own health and wealth is stretching credibility a little to far.

However it's fair to say that there are areas of Edinburgh that have dangerously high levels of pollutants, if they had never changed that, never forced vehicle manufacturers to develop cleaner and yes Jim Greener vehicles we would all be suffering the effects of it.

How often do you hear of people attaching the hose these days?

But the fact remains you want to double the trades combined engine capacity from roughly 3000 litres to 6000 litres without making the Euro IV standard a prerequisite of that first!

There's cleaner fuel coming on next year as well I believe, make no mistake Jim, passive smoking aside whats the only thing thats really changed since the days when we were reared in smoking families?

How come the Asthma rates were going up whilst the smoking rate was going down.

The difference between you and I is that I'm prepared to put my money where my big fat gob is whereas I don't think you even know where your big fat gob is!

Your all over the place with this and you are a fraud, a sham , because Jimmy stays far away from the AQMA he doesn't give a damn for people who stay in it and may suffer as a consequence.

You try living in some of the areas of the city and see how long you agree with it, it took me over one hour to find a place to park in my own street a few weeks ago, one hour!

Were all sick of it now, the balance is gone, your all or nothing solutions to every problem is a joke now.

P.S Who mentioned CO2.

Then make Euro IV compulsory for all new cabs and all substitutions. Don't use it as justification for restrictive policies.

BTW Not having to shell out £50,000 to someone else will leave plenty of spare cash for more efficient engines

Don't give me the you're prepared to put your money .... gig. Everyone I've spoken thinks youre a complete idiot for shelling out 50 grand now. What part of stupid don't you understand Stu.

Passive smoking aint affecting my health, because those who come to my house go into the garden to smoke, and have done for years. I didn't have to ask them, they were courteous enough to do it of their own volition.
Passive smoking is NOT a problem, except in chain smoking households where parents don't give a toss for their kids. perhaps increased by the governments fascist smoking ban of course where, rather than insist that public places only allowed smoking in well air conditioned and ventilated areas - for which the technology is already in place, they decanted smokers back into their front rooms where the rest of the family "benefit" from the governments outrageous policy. Richard Tetes like you STU should have seen this and cried foul.

BTW Have to say you're right about the big fat gob bit
