Taxi Driver Online

Rambo pardon me Rambo but organising a wage snatch is not a mistake but filthy corruption,
Arresting people for the Gestapo a mistake?
Arresting torturing,manufacturing evidence,lying under oath is not a mistake its filthy corruption.
Time warp eh.we currently have 1 maybe 2 cases under way against the MET for racial assault!
We are collating evidence today about entrapment,and harrasment,to the extent that London Region GMB has had to organise a 24hr hotline for our members,to supply experienced Lawyers to any member arrested.The reason ENTRAPMENT bullying harrasment normally against members of ethnic minorities,our ADVICE NEVER EVER WHEN ARRESTED TRUST ANY POLICE OFFICER!never make any statement until your GMB lawyer is present,if you do you are on YOUR OWN.
This action is because of current police activity,time warp no REALITY!!
There are people out there who have lost their PHV licences because webelieve they accepted the honesty of a police officer they wernt members but BEG me to assist unfortunately its too late.In case theres any confusion i dont trust any police officer at any time anywhere,in my opinion only imbeciles do.
You state we should be gratefull to those that do a good a job and who have died in on duty of course ,unfortunately they are a small minority,we will do everything to clean them up,for filthy corruption must be eliminated for all of us to be able live a civilised existance without the fear of corrupt police fitting us up,killing us in cells[theres another can of worms] to live our lives in PEACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ORGANISE EDUCATE AGITATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Entrapment? Is "entrapment" a defence?

GMB, the reason that so many ethnics are being arrested is because they are the ones who do the touting, and that is a FACT. Every fri/sat night I get loads of touts pulling up outside my office and every one is an ethnic, when I write down thier reg number they go mad and start screaming and shouting.
Entrapment?, if a undercover police officer walks up to you and asks if your a cab, the simple answer is NO, phv cannot pick up of the street simple.
I have been stopped by the police at routine checks and have always been treated politely and fairly, maybe it's because I do the job legally and don't tout?. GMB, walk out of any bar/club in london and it is always an ethnic asking if you want a cab. You cannot defend the indefendable.

Lets make it clear,the GMB PDB advocate the policy,touts should have their cars crushed,and they be banned from holding a PHV licence for LIFE!
Entrapment is something entirely different,it involves the Police lying and fabricating evidence.Often drivers are told make a statement pleading guilty,or else we keep you here in a cell for 24hrs.If you plead guilty you just get a little fine and thats it.Many drivers are so frightend that they do it.Mainly because where they come from if the police tell you to do something you do it or else!When we have substantiated evidence we guarantee we will utilise every facility to put these people where they belong.BEHIND BARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ORGANISE EDUCATE AGITATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GMB there is just the one thing that gets up my and I should imagine GBC and other knowledge licenced drivers snotters is just that. The knowledge. It cost time and for some lots, to obtain the licence, So why are your lot trying to obtain the few privaleges that we have earnt.
Can you not realise that when I see a PHV picking up a cream job from a hotel that I once did and feel that I should still be doing, it angers me.
I feel so sorry for the younger members of the trade.
Ever since I got my licence the 'old boys' would say "The game is finished, go get a proper job." Now I say the same. but it is true

GMB, are you saying that a phv is driving down the road minding his own buissiness and the police stop him and make up evidence about him touting?, I DON'T THINK SO!!.
The answer is simple, DO NOT BREAK THE LAW.
I have been doing this job for over ten years and have never been arrested for touting, and you know why?, I DON'T DO IT!.
I herby invite you and your mate red ken to come out with me on a friday night in shoreditch and we will see how many times we get approached by a tout, and every one of them will be an ethnic, and every one of them will scream that they are innocent!.
The reason that touting in london is so bad is because every time the police stopped an ethnic, they screamed the race card.

I disagree Mac.

I know you don't work nights, but seriously, its busier than ever out there at the moment, and its the school holidays.

I know some people have to work days, but I cannot for the life of me, understand why drivers want to sit in gridlocked traffic all day, wait on ranks packed with Taxi's, wait outside corrupt Hotels to take crap jobs up to Oxford street or wait at Heathrow for over an hour to get yet another job to Hatton Cross.

The jobs tonight after midnight were non stop, it was only the luck of a trip out to Radlett that got me an early finish, otherwise there was enough work there to keep me going into the wee hours.

The look on the link mens faces at night is worth every penny, when you turn them down, opposed to then lining their pockets to the highest bidding Taxi or Minicab during the day.

Hope your keeping well, how's PUU getting on?

So have the GMB PDB.



Can you provide some proof Terry, because it seems like your opinion opposed to fact creeping in here.



They were guilty as hell.
Is'nt it funny how everyone who's ever arrested or convicted is innocent?
I've often wondered who commits the 2 Million crimes a year?
But then if a copper makes his notes an hour after he says he did because he was called away, its a big stitch up.
The Birmingham six were guilty, IRA scum, they're still guilty, three of them have been convicted of other crimes since their release.



The footage I watched showed a bunch of yobs in NCB jackets having a riot because men were exercising their rights to work and feed their familys.
Thanks to your fellow socialist fool Scargill, the industry collapsed.
Please supply details of the false TV evidence Terry, or is it your short sighted union issue specs working again?



During the printers dispute your cowardly union thugs threw bricks from the back of the crowd, hitting your own members at the front, what a bunch of tossers.
Again we see your version opposed to fact.



Oh yes the 'entapment' lie.

You may have noticed that about 88% of Minicab drivers are immigrants, either asian or black in appearance, its also these people who are out touting in their thousands every night of the week.
So what do you propose the TFL TOCU do? stop white drivers? would that make you and the SWP happy?

God your impossible.




Well don't wait for me Terry, post the proof.

I won't hold my breath, even though I got Gold at lifesaving, it would be too long.



Err No he does'nt, thats the MPA's job, and the Home Office.
Its got farck all to do with Red Ken unless it comes to the MPS budget.
He can't even tell the Transport TOCU what to do, and he funds it.

Wrong again.


Cheer up Terry, it'll be 1979 soon, and Maggie will be here.

My, something we actually agree on Terry.




What absolute Bullshite!

Have you been watching the Sweeney or Z cars recently?

If you believe thats what goes on, then your more niaeve that I thought.
Would you jump of a building if I told you to?

You don't make statements Terry, its a taped / videoed interview conducted under PACE.
It has been for about 21 years!

You should apply to the TOCU to go out with them on a Friday or Saturday night, and witness first hand what your 'members' are up to. It might even bring you back down to planet earth and reality.

GMB, do you remember when union members threw a lump of concrete of a bridge on to a TAXI drivers car and killed him because he was taking a miner to work who would not strike.

No, that one was convieniently missed out.

We had a lad called Jim Pearson, the lone miner who disagreed with Scargill and his henchmen.

The NUM thugs beat him within an inch of his life, threatend to rape his then teenage daughter, and many other numerous horrible things.

Why?

Because the man went to work.

The Pearsons still live in Culross and have a large sign with the family name outside the house, good on them, what decent people.
It was thanks to Jim Pearson and many others who followed him back to work, that essential maintenance was completed, Longannet Mine was'nt flooded.
In turn this meant there we're jobs to go back to when the strike, and Scargill collapsed.

God their poor ears.

Because many of them don't need to do otherwise.
