Taxi Driver Online

I couldn't have made it simpler for you

Climb the ladder until you find your level through investment, the higher you go the more power you gain

I found the level i'm happy with but if you want to operate at a higher level good luck to you but you/should will pay more the higher level you go

cant be bothered explaining the flaws with your idea to you dougie your to retarded to take it in.so instead ill just blow it out the water.

if that ever came to pass multi plate holders would just have the plates in individual companies,as it is now in fact.

thus avoiding this rich tax of yours.
thus no way to do it.


another pipe dream Dougie.

you've spouted this crap before, it was blown away then.

you tried to gain an audience with city cabs....again blown away.

now your back .....please please blow away.
your getting to the point that i actually feel sympathy for you.

apart from that i suggest you read the cgsa and tell us again
where this is allowed for

i think you'll that find in business that the more units you have the less you pay per unit.

but not in topsy turvy Dougie land.

your minds a mess Dougie .....sort it out ffs

If you had say 6-100 licences would you set up 6-100 individual companies , what with 6-100 different sets of Accounts ect, then there's your corporation Tax ect

And here is me thinking you where too intellegent to live in Niddrie, C'MON AliT don't let me down, i was totally convinced of your superior knowledge

Under your sysyem Reggie would be the benifit to the hack trade?

“the higher you go, the more power you gain“ what are you on about? You have no power. You are a slave to their illusion. It's whoever controls your illusion that has the power. You are the one with the dependency and financial burden. You just get to pretend.

Christ, this is becoming like the movie, Toy Story.

I take it you are asking WHAT is the benefit to the Hack Trade?

Protecting the Trade for individuals, guy's like me who are just out to make an honest living, I only have 1 licence, making the Trade un-attractive to infiltraitors and profiteers who are the REAL enslavers of our trade

Youve got one what about the guys who have none by buying your licence you climbed the lader above them, playing the game as its called, and by the rules you say.

can you tell me what rules

I take it simple arithmatic is not your thing

If you pay a yearly rental times it by 5 say £300 a week £15,000 grand a year times 5 = £75,000 have you got that?

Now take these figures to your bank manager and if you have 3 years accounts plus a percentage up front you should have no problems getting the money to invest in yourself

After 5 years you will still have the value in your plate say 40k so you have saved 40k over what you would have paid in rental, meaning your 5 years would have cost only 35k not counting the cost of your Taxi ect

I didn't expect anything less than a trivial attempt at humour from you tbh. I suppose extraterrestrial is a little different than superhero taxi driver in a wonder car

The rules of the Trade that where in place long before i became a cabbie!!!

I recommend you learn the rules by asking what is the norm within our Trade in Edinburgh

I didn't mind paying for the right to use an old boy's plate, i only paid £17,000 but hey the old boy after 35 years of investing in new taxi's i'm quite sure no one grudges the old boy the 17k i paid, this was 9 years ago.

I'm thinking you are new to the Taxi trade

Alan Sugar, makes investments and sells illusions. You, Dougie, purchased an illusion. Alan Sugar, is the man behind the curtain. You, Dougie, are like Dorothy in the Wizard of OZ, “off to see the Wizard”. The yellow brick road is taking you all the way back to, de-restriction. You're going back to Kansas, Dorothy. The dream is almost over.

After 35 years in the trade the old boy should have earned enough from that licence to have a retirement so why should he be able to sell the licence, it should just go back to the council that issued it and given to the person at the top of the list who has waited the longest for it. I don't agree with de-restriction, but, I don't agree with the buying and selling of licences either
