As for the uniform issue, claim it back on tax. Of course that's if they declare their earnings.


But you hate people making profit from drivers and the uniforms are never sold at cost.

Do you include the full ins and outs to cover plate types and the operational differences between them.

If people want to waste their money on plates or supa dupa cars, then so be it. But if it goes tits up, tough.

The vast majority of us are self-employed. No one owes us a living.

Is it not then fair to assume that you made a choice to go down the PH route rather than the HC route and is it not then fair for people who chose to invest more to have little sympathy for your quest to get for nothing what they worked hard and paid for.

If people choose to queue jump waiting lists, then they have only themselves to blame if they lose their plate values.

In fact, the more queue jumpers lose, the better.

Surely you researched the industry before making the decisions you have made.

Shame you now want the world to change because you made the wrong decision.

Depends on what you class as the wrong decision.

But if you think little old me can change the world, well thanks for the compliment.

I don't hate anyone, not even you.

I also don't mind folks making money, just like it to be shared by the many not just the few.

But no-one is forced into this trade, if folks don't like the job, then best they leave it to the ones that do.

The words 'GA' and 'thinks' is not a combination you often see, so best that's ignored.

I wonder if thats cause people are getting to close to the real truth ................ or the fact that your personal/business decisions are known with regard your imergance as a taxi baron.

Having a foot in both camps is never easy.
