Now I know you are in a honeymoon period with Terry and love is blinding you, but please come back in a year's time and give us an accurate up-date of what's been done and why it couldn't be done without Terry.

Because at the moment you are making yourself look a fool.

But you claim I'm a fool anyway Sussex, pity that, but on the bright side we know what we are about, we know what we stand for, we encourage higher standards in whichever way that lead to better conditions and higher earning potential for our members.

We do not claim to support something and then criticise those who seek to implement something solely on the basis that it wasn't us that thought of it.

Its easy to sit there behind your mask and criticise other peoples ideas but the fool is the man who offers nothing other than that criticism.

What a diddlywhack .................... is ABC to difficult ................. can you not answer the questions raised or comment other than to berate.

What is typical is the response against quality controls ............... just admit the fact your anti HC and be done with it ............. your goal is single tier without control or restriction.

We're a thick skinned lot us geordies ................... and your personal insults do nothing to intimidate me out of any debate as you are incapable of answering even the simplest of questions as you believe the questions to be beneath you.

Not sure who we is, but if we is Terry then that's exactly what he did and does.

But in time you will learn.

Terry wouldn't know what an idea was if it banged him on the head.

But in time you will learn.

Well it wouldn't be fair for me to call you a thick Geordie, but if you actually believe more than 1% of what he tells you then you are making a good effort in becoming one.

I wish you well, and as long as you keep the grass out of your manor then you might do well.

You have been warned.

The topic is an unfounded allegation from the Brighton GMB, supported by two Brighton councillors, I don't think its too much to ask the author for an explanation, do you?

I don't know if this statement came from Mr Flanagan or the local GMBU rep
but an explanation of how they came to the conclusion that standards in Brighton are superior to the other three authorities, would be most interesting?

Sussex

130 PH & HC drivers have representation with their local authority, which they never had before.

Meetings to discuss local and national issues, which they never had before.

Brighton GMB PDB represented a taxi controller who was being bullied by a local cab company into changing his contract when he did not want to. Result this guy still has his old contract.

Brighton GMB PDB lobbied the local councillors to issue 20 new plates to help with the lack of disabled taxis. 8 Brighton GMB PDB members now have wav plates.

Brighton GMB PDB member had problems with re-licencing as he had not declared conviction. Brighton GMB PDB represented this member and he still has his job and the ability to support his family.

Brighton GMB PDB helped an older driver to be reinstated on the Hack waiting list after being told he would not be issued plate due to current policy. Result driver now back on list and hopefully will be issued plate in next issue due May 2007.

Brighton GMB PDB helped member regain 8 lost years from H/C list. Result member now back om list and hopefully will be issued plate in May 2008.

With respect, Terry has given the lads in Brighton and Gateshead the tools to use, its up to the members how successful or unsuccessful they make it.

Well I can tell you that Terry has never given me his tool .................... nor would I have accepted it even if were offered ......................... the lads in Brighton are obviously different
