Always either clipped to my sweater or to the pocket of my shirt as I am required to do under council rules but I am one of the few who do and the council has never enforced this rule in the last 10 years

I have yet to see Mr Excuses insist on a driver wearing it mind you he only ever comes to Stamford once a year !!!

Staffs school contracts also require drivers WEAR a photo id badge

BTW our badges come with a breakaway chain

yeah i wear mine when doing school contract hires, only the primary schools ask for the badge but not the secondary, i used to pay £40 pound every two years to renew mine, but last year they offerd me a badge that cost £70 but didn't expire unless i get a conviction or something. i took it and now don't need to worry about renewing that.

FFS having read this yesterday I remembered that mine was up for renewal, £6.00 for mug shots, £82 for badge

As you should, but, not sure every minicab driver wants one. Perhaps you mean every minicab driver in London :wink:
