There are Hackney Drivers in York who would do well to take heed of the following
" our background and circumstances
may have influenced who we are,
But, we are responsible for who we become."

You know who you are !!!!!!!!!!!

That sounds like an extract from the infamous Donald Rumsfeld speach 'Known, knowns, known unknowns, unknown knowns, unknown unknowns etc, etc'

What these low life [edited by admin] are doing is beneath contempt, especially as one of them pleaded in the local paper for people to give him money for his deposit to stand in the local elections to stamp out people in authority from fiddling expenses

The Thinker thought he was thinking but he just Thunked
When you resort to personal insults you destroy your argument completely
If you can not identify between different situations then don’t bother to try philosophy

Some licence holders (plate owners) are exemplary
They keep their vehicle in good order (repairs and updated)
They allow drivers who work their car holidays rent free
They allow time off ill rent fee if it is unavoidable
They have a good relationship with their drivers

Some are just parasites
Definition
Living off someone else hard work without regard to the current situation
Not willing to take any off the risk but expecting all the return

So now I have that off my chest if you want to talk about why some owners were not prepared to put their own vehicles on the rank you could mention the Association that sold its members down the river excepting the council rules about colour and age without understanding the consequences.

As you have noticed I have not resorted to insult there is no need, I do not judge people before I know the full facts. If I do get things wrong I am prepared to say sorry, sometimes there is no right or wrong you just have to do one or the other.

So if you don’t let the facts get in the way off a good story keep it up,
if you want to know the truth ask and you shall be informed

Check out the avatars
I am a real hypnotist

Are you really a Thinker

You could ofcourse be part of the station Junta
You could ask those drivers who did nothing and are now no job and no income to pay for their vehicle or is that just rumour

York Stn taxis [ gestapo] are now to have on the spot inspections when on the rank, day or night

to check dress code, how clean you are, and if you are dressed correctly as per York Stn taxi rules/ newsletter as issued today, how clean your vehicles are, by order of East Coast Mainline, as you are carrying their customers,I thought they went bust] or is it a Stn taxi thing

you will at random be pulled from the rank, taken into Tearoom Square and inspected, if anything is out of order you will be sent home or off the stn rank

who are these people, simple taxi drivers who are share holders, thats all , they are enforcing these rules on other drivers

That sounds like an out-post of Animal Farm.

If your face don't fit, then you will be targeted relentlessly.

Time to crush the monopoly.

Your correct stinky, the Government now own the line and stations on that rout, so why are drivers still paying the gestapo, are the drivers brain dead there?? answers on a postage stamp,
They are now free agents and anyone can work there until the government decide to bring in a nominal charge
Has anyone been in touch with the council about this illegal charging

Not the 2!!!! I know about

As I have already said unless you know all the facts you should not really judge a persons movtive or actions
If you knew the full story like some already have and had second thoughts about the one's (not everyone) who want to sit back and let the money roll in and do not care if the drivers out there can earn the money to pay the rent.

I do not insult you for your ignorance of the real situation with some plates

Let,s disscus a subject that I do not know all the facts but could make good gossip about like NV'Qs
No let's not as I do not know the real story

Let the Thinker start thinking and stop Thunking

Again you have your facts wrong young man
The one you are talking about did not plead, he asked for donations to help his nomination on a point of principle.
He was talking about, not just people taking advantage of the system they were in but people taking advantage with butter on.
(you could use the same analagy with plates and use of or plates and pensions,inheritance,nest eggs etc;)

Anyway to put you right all the donations he collected were given back in full when he understood he could not afford to stand at the election and risked losing the deposit,
As is the case there are lots of mouths willing to shout but not many who are prepared to put there money where there mouth is.

If you had offered him the deposit of £500 non returnable he could have stood against political expences rip offs
