Taxi Driver Online

The BTEC qualification seems to be doing the rounds around the country and is of concern to a lot of people. Bournemouth have a few drivers going to court over it - has anyone heard anything concerning the case?

I've not heard anything new from Bournemouth, but on the broader issue I think this lark might well be killed off by government cutbacks.

I mean if it's a choice between a new Sixth Form, or millions wasted by so-called educating folks in the cab trade, TBH it's a bit of a no brainer for the gov.

Apparently in court the LO said that the courses were unanimously approved by the trade at a packed meeting when in fact only 9 taxi drivers were invited and most turned out to be course providers

Problem there seems this govt has no brains
Hopefully Cameron when he gets in will will scrap it under under his
stopping public money wastage polcy

I was always told that a Labour gov would interfere and ruin the cab trade, where a Conservative one would appreciate those doing the job must make a viable living from it, in hindsight I really wish John Major had won back in 97, but that's why hidsight is so wonderful isn't it.

The con is.............. They tell you that you have redress through the magistrates court, only for them to tell you that they cannot interfere, Annnd
£500 please - this country is so f*****g corrupt it is untrue.
