It was also decided to reiterate the GMB PDB National Organising committee's position regarding the meetings which were held, named the Meeting of Minds.


We wish to make it absolutely clear there were no GMB PDB National Officers at these meetings. A member of the GMB did attend but purely as a local area representative.


The GMB PDB National Organising Committee has yet to receive any invites to any scheduled meetings, and has not authorised any GMB PDB member to represent the GMB PDB in any way at any subsequent meetings. All issues relating to the National Taxi & Private Hire Industry are now required to proceed through this Committee.

I would say it's a good step forward having trade reps from the provincial taxi/PH trade who actually work in the provincial taxi/PH trade.

And isn't it better for us all if MPs, ministers, councillors etc, outside of London, are lobbied and advised by people who know what they are talking about?

When I ever decide to work in London then Mr F would be the man, but as that's never going to happen, then that's never going to happen.

The GMB PDB is now more than just a London based outfit.
