Bob, your agents made the above film!
What do you intend to do with it?
Director of LTPH John Mason has been to Abacus and been Touted!
Deputy director of LTPH, Helen Chapman has been to Abacus and been touted!
On the front page of Taxi Magazine, it was appears to state that Abacus has had their satellite office license revoked.
But it seems LTPH have failed to revoke Diamond cars license at Abacus, because they are still there every night, forming an illegal rank!
The Clipboard man is still on the pavement touting.
Would this then mean that the statement on the front page of Taxi Magazine is untrue?
John Mason recently addressed a meeting of suburban drivers. Worried that TfL were doing nothing about illegal ranking they spoke about suing TFL for negligence. He said;
"Do what you like, our pockets are bigger than yours".
It seems TfL may have deep pockets, but they have very short arms!
The city police have failed to revoke their license and in fact, have granted Diamond cars and similar companies new ones!
Bob, my questions are;
According to published accounts, we know the LTDA has over £4,000,000 in the bank. What are you saving up for?
Why have you not bought up the issues of illegal plying for hire at surface transport meetings?
What's the point of you being on the board of TfL? (other than £24,500 a year in your pocket)
I'm sure your members, especially the ones still paying you subscriptions, would be interested in the answers to these questions.
Jim,
ReplyDeleteAlso in the same issue it turns out, the reason why there is to be no compulsory signage on scabs saying Pre booked only, is because the LTDA under Oddy's direction said;
THE LTDA HOLDS THE VIEW THAT MINICABS SHOULD BE RESTRICTED TO THE DISPLAY OF A SOLE LICENCE AUTHORITY PLATE AFFIXED TO THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE
It would seem his best mate Steve Wright, head of the PHA (Private Hire Association) is against signage on minicabs!
I think the question must be asked
ReplyDeleteWhat financial connections Oddy has with Private Hire?
He doesn't declare interests to board of TfL although he says he is a director of Com Cab, which basically is a Private hire Company owned by Comfort Delgro (Fleet line and Comfort cars)
Do you ever have any success writing or are you just getting paid to write so much crap. Have you ever been to Fabric or Pasha. Of course you know whats going on there but we all know your scared to go there as you'll come back with two black eyes and no teeth.

Very nice article about Diamond Cars, i think we should rank outside abacus as were not going to get anything outside the anthologist or reflex as the COLP are behind them.
ReplyDeleteI don't think were getting anywhere ranking outside any club. We are only wasting our time and losing money.
ReplyDelete"Our pockets are bigger than yours" Really John ? Be carefull what you say mate, it may one day come back and bite you on the arse .
ReplyDeleteAt last chaps the clip board guy outside reflex bar in watling street has been arrested!
ReplyDeleteI've told you working drivers before.
ReplyDeleteNow Feck off, Now Feck off, Now Feck Off, Now Feck Off, Now Feck Off, Now F..........
Anon 03:31 - The COLP are behind them so i cannot see it being revoked. They have John Rylands backing! John Ryland will never let the satellite licenses of Reflex Bar or Anthologist be revoked. Something fishy is going on i tell ya!.
ReplyDeleteMeeting at reflex bar in watling street tonight lads, i'll be there for 2am. Would be nice to see a great turnout like we had at anthologist last week. Please inform one another.
