Are those the same quality controls that have recently been suggested as crap?
By whom?

Those numbers are based on Liverpool.....which went from 400 odd to 1400

Cardiff.....from 400 to 850 odd

And Birmingham, which i suspect Brummie has told you about in the past.

Those figures are based on what has happened elsewhere......how else is someone expected to base figures.


If the conditions are different, it's comparing apples with pears.

Using your thinking and Aberdeen as a basis, the increase would be less than 40 cabs a year for the next 4 years.

That too would be comparing apples and pears, just not the dramatic figure which suits your case.


Was your former trade greengrocer?

No, bullshit detector.

Facts yes.
Interpretation and application of facts: poor

Truth:
Even if de-reg worked, you'd still oppose it.

For someone who work's in a de-reg area and by your own words if de-reg worked you f*cking well no it doesn't work as you operate in a de-reg area

You could hit these people over the head with a hammer, a bit like Peter Sutcliffe tried, but without actually them being prostitutes or killing them......as long as they didnt die.....but it was a bit painful.......and they still wouldnt believe you......so then you'd point to Derek being a bit p*ssed off and shooting a few......but the bad ones mind.......and still it doesnt get through......

still there's always McDonalds.

That'll teach you to mock shorty, if I were you I would avoid 9 wells for a few days until he simmers down a bit
