Great comment sussex. Not!!!

I think if a local PH firm starting ranking up in front of the biggest nightclub in your manor, you and your colleagues wouldn't be best pleased.

Is a strike a winning formula? IMO no, but the Dundee lads have used the press successfully in a way someone else from Scotland does. :roll:

I'm, I'm, I,m my, my, I'm.

That's why the trade is fecked. because the public know that cabbies see them as little more than a cash cow.

It's just gotta change or we're all down the toilet.

:oops:

just home from monitoring strike..out of 570 hacks, we counted 20 working..success or what ? and jasbar we are all business men just like any shop or pub or whatever..we all need the public for money !
police HQ overloaded and still fares on streets..now the PH'S may well have made money tonight but, the amount of them caught illegally picking up was very disturbing.
so where is their regard for public safety ? truth..they will answer to the beaks when all reports are filed :-({|= ..at least we put morals before money eh ??? [-X

wheres yer proof, I wish you lot would "strike"...ahem stay @ home every week.

"monitoring" more like scare mongering driving about following PH cars everywhere, acting like yobs & threatening us, yeh thats right one guy outside London Night Club to me says "you better pick up yer job from office or else we're watching you!"

Sorry but what a sorry bunch of idiots you lot are, THUGS thats all you lot proved to be, oh and try about 100 Hacks ya fud!

:roll:

Rubbish. It's a no-brainer.

You have no respect for the public. Just your own greedy self interest.

You've done the taxi trade as a whole no favours here.

The public know full well whose interests you have at heart. This will come back to bite you.

It's no more than you deserve.

:evil:

PS:

Not This Callsign :mrgreen:

PPS:

Pretty sure no-one else did either, if they did they were very silly but reports I received were that all our PH drivers did not stoop so low.

Congrats To Them All :wink:

The proof kid is all hacks that did work..their plate numbers have been noted and will be named and shamed.all 20 o them !

and all PH'S caught operating illegally had plate no..time..and street or rank of pick up noted, and will be reported on monday..

every car that monitored the strike was armed with camera, notepad and witness.. :D

I'll bet that the council won't take any notice whatsoever of your pictures and witnesses. I doubt that a photo taken from a distance away and a witness statement that they saw a car pick up a passenger will be proof that it wasn't a pre booked fare.
