They will probably ask that all private hire have to return to their own area before taking the next bookings. :wink:


How would that work if you take someone from say Liverpool to Birmingham airport and your next job is from Birmingham airport to Liverpool?
If I remember the conversation correctly.... that would be OK.....


Oh goody....we are going to have new taxi law decided by MrT's conversations !

Easy Tiger.

I firmly believe to alter this bit of legislation will lead to an abyss, but then I do look on the bright side.

I quite agree
From speaking to people on the private hire side.. it would seem that they intend to take full advantage of changing the law..... doomed..... definitely doomed.....

I disagree.

If things don't change then we will arrive at your abyss.

Anyone wishing to contribute to the consultation should note that you can't just send a standard email!!

I wonder how many that will catch out?

Of course each individual who gives a monkeys ..... could make their own submission.

Then they could make a submission via their local associaton (they are a member because they give a monkeys...).

Then their national association could make a submission on their behalf (because their local associaton gives a monkeys... and belongs to the National association).


And - as if by magic - the poachers are beaten to the game by the gamekeepers who make all their responses on 666 pages with a 19 page guide, backed up with a 24 minute DVD (with Directors cut of an extra 25 minutes of outakes) which is allowed "in" because of the "Value of the input" completely paid for, though indirectly, by the poachers.

For anyone who doesn't know who is who, IoL and NALEO may be considered "Gamekeepers". We the simple folk who pay their wages - the "Poachers".

No - far from it.

We could "Ostrich" the situation as presented, or we can do our best. Either way we could be "Shafted" - I just hope to be less "shafted" if we get our oar in (hoping thats not too nautical for you CC).



(Please forgive any spelling mistakes - I have had the honor to entertain Toots to dinner this evening and due to a slight intake of wine with dinner, my keyboard is not functioning as it would normaly.)
