On Roys I said taxies would be banned from college green and ye said I was a retard .I said somebody would import fleets of WATs and the same fella told me I was fucking mad .I said that we would get 24 hour busses http://www.thejournal.ie/dublin-bus-24-hour-3879221-Mar2018/?utm_source=shortlink (http://www.thejournal.ie/dublin-bus-24-hour-3879221-Mar2018/?utm_source=shortlink) and the same lad called me more names ..
P.S. How is Roy anybody heard from him ?

On Roys I said taxies would be banned from college green and ye said I was a retard .
There's no correlation between the two. Have I won my stg£5.00 yet or do you still think WATs will be exempt from the College Green ban?

Ran off with a blackwoman last I heard
He loved them immigrants

Wait till they announce the Taxi ban then give it a Month before they change their mind and Allow WATs .You will have your £5 if you win in time to get a 99 @Laytown races .

Bring on the Tali ban! 8)

Doubt i'll ever be driving around there between 7am and 10am.

Agree with you Hal.I couldn't give a bollox if they closed it from 7 a.m. till midnight.Even if they closed it 24 hrs a day I wouldn't be to worried.Daymen/kesh pricks making all the objections.
As if they really care if they have to take the M50 to get a customer to the Shelbourne.Its the only way they know.
-
That £5 note could be worth a fortune Rodent .As I also predicted Donny T would do what Donny T said he might do .Tax Cuts and a trade war wont be long before Paggo and the Gay Foreigner are taxing the bollox out of the few workers left and As the Crystal Ball also forcast watch what happens in Italy .The EU have convinced the Italians to change their voting system so the 5 star movement get loads of votes but fuck all seats .Two weeks after the Gay Foreigner announced his plan for 2024 it will be abandoned Brexit and Pizzexit .The good times are over before they began .
-
Dont forget the Big Crystal Ball prediction .When the Border goes back up the bullets will fly but this time the Enemy of the people wont be the Brits it will be Our own Government .Especially the Gay Foreigner who guaranteed the people we had a Bullet Proof Agreement .
-
We have a bullet poof agreement. You just don't understand what was agreed.

The Brits said they would not put up a border .The Gay Foreigner said thats Grand but he never said that the EU/Irish wouldnt put up a border .That means that the Irish State will put a border in place that restricts Irish Citizens from freely entering Ireland .When the shinners rearm the Anti Europe Anarchists from all over Europe willflood in here to give them a helping hand ,Islamis Militants will fund the fight as they would like nothing more than to overthrow an Eastern State .The Gay Foreigner was aware of the Danger so signed us up to a European Defence policy so he can call on our Allies to help defend the state as the Irish army couldnt get a four wheel Jeep up a small hill on a sunny day and the Gards are overworked .The Irony is we are going to Celebrate ?remember 100 years since the Irish Civil War at exactly the same time we are partitioned again .History has a way of repeating itself .We were Partitioned by a Half Breed Foreigner De Velera now we will be re partitioned By a Gay Foreigner .As I posted on Roys time to get a gun .You saw the disinfranchised in Jobestown who Kidnapped the Leader of the Labour Party and destroyed their own community ,They are the real danger to the State they only need a Clarrion Call to get them up and at it .

A current government making plans for 2040,that's why we don't have half the infrastructure that we should have,most of those TD's won't be around to take the plaudits for all the projects that won't be done...so no harm done!!
-
I see where the misunderstanding occurred. Nobody said there would be no hard border, they merely said they did not intend there to be a hard border. Said intent remains intact to this very day but intentions can't always be realised.

But Bullet Proof can be easily tested .

Timing is everything. Unfortunately politicians don't appreciate that a surplus is not a good thing, it means you have got your forecast (budget) wrong because you don't know what is happening in the economy i.e. it is out of control. In those circumstances capital expenditure projects are going to cost top dollar hence infrastructural projects should be restricted to schools and hospitals with other infrastructural constraints being allowed to strangle the economy to some extent to regain control of growth rates. As the cost of such projects decreases Govt should consider putting transport, etc projects out to tender both as an economic stimulant and to maintain controlled growth.
-
Wont be Long Rodent before CIE privatise the rolling stock while maintaining the infrastructure The ESB will go the same way Dublin Bus LUAS ,DART will all be privatised then Schools and Hospitals .The only thing the Government will run is Revenue and the Dail Bar .A lot of people dont know Veradkar volunteered to work on American Elections for the Tea Party who are the Ultra Right in American Politics .Have a Good Look at European Politics with the Exception of Great Britain who have a real Right /Left political system every other European Country and the USA ,Canada ,Japan even China and Russia are Right wing Political entities where its all about the Policy and fuck the people ..The World is in as dangerous a place as it was in the 1930s .The Kaiser in Germany has just gotten a mandate now watch her try to crush the Brits and watch the Gay Foreigner cheering from the sidelines ..Did you do the Sums on the 2040 proposals Rodent ?There was one figure missing in the calculations the 2% of GDP we agreed to spend on European Defense 2% of GDP put into house building would eradicate homelessness for ever by 2040.
-
The problem with privatisation is that it severely limits employment options for thick lads. Semi States were ideal for providing employment to those who would be unlikely to be employed in similar roles within organisations with a commercial focus. You're probably old enough to remember the privatisation of Telecom Eireann, the new CEO spent about three minutes in the office before he got home sick. However, I guess increasing defence expenditure opens up the army a little.
-
Might be time to take FDS lead its only a part time gig .German economy grew nothing in the last quarter of 2017 and all the migrants are all on the Brew .If the German Economy slows then Europe and the Euro is Donald Ducked and if the real Donald starts a trade war Germany will suffer more than most .The Gay Foreigner and Paggo will come under pressure from the Kaiser and Kermit for tax harmonization .
-
I took FDSs advice years ago, I've been part-time since Celtic Tiger MKI died.
-
Anything over 10 hours a week is more than part time to me
-
I aim for 20-30 on working weeks, probably average a little under 20. Full-time to me would be 35+ hours. In a '9-5' job you would have to do that on top of commuting.

Fair play if you can work less than 20 hours a week.
No way in Cork or any other county would you get away with that.
One would barely cover overheads working less than 20 hours.
-
I have pretty low overheads and I'm not the bread winner in my household. Judging by Ken's success in chasing mytaxi bonuses back when mytaxi paid bonuses I reckon I'd get away with 8.5 hours down in the real capital! To earn a full-time wage commensurate with skill required (probably a bit below what a delivery man would earn) I'd probably need to work 40+ hours in the suburbs of Dublin.
-
Try this on for size .The Dereg said anybody with a spsv drivers licence is entitled to apply and get a vehicle licence .The taxi thingey decided that it must be a WAT they put a Moratorium on Saloon licences .Now what if Mytaxi decided to use their influence on the TAC to get more drivers licences then you have a problem just like or similar to dereg there are lots of licenced drivers but not enough licenced vehicles .A possible solution Daimler/Volvo/Toyota all offer to make electric vehicles available FOR these drivers to operate .Environmentally clean .So we are back to the Slimming World Conundrum first somebody promotes fat food for fat people then Slimming World step in with the Solution .Dont be surprised to see the Moritorium on Saloon Plates removed in the next two years or as soon as they have the required number of WATs in the fleet .Remember this is a deregulated industry and the only barrier to entry is the type of vehicle .As the range on EVs is short expect them to mainly operate in urban taxi areas like Dublin ,Cork ,
So ask yourself Why would the NTA be promoting the training of 1500 more drivers unless they are going to make vehicles available for them .Why would they invite people into an industry that has no vehicles for them ?
-
Fleet operators will provide the jobs. It's unlikely that drivers' representatives on TAC would allow lifting the current temporary moratorium on the issue of saloon plates.
-
Give this a listen starting @2.25 Then he says Volvo.UBER .and Daimler Mytaxi are partners .If this rent a car from the manufacturers catches on then Volvo/Daimler can partner up with their prefered taxi dispatchers Uber and Mytaxi .They rent the cars off the manufacturer and put drivers into them who rent them off them .I remember posting on Roys beware they are after what you have https://www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/2018-03-06/volvo-cars-ceo-says-tariffs-would-be-a-problem-for-all-of-us-video (https://www.bloomberg.com/news/videos/2018-03-06/volvo-cars-ceo-says-tariffs-would-be-a-problem-for-all-of-us-video)

Drivers reps would be in a minority of one .
-
Ermy we already know this.Just sit tight and wait for them to buy us out.They have to.It's gonna be great...
-
I doubt it given that there's more than one on TAC. For a bloke who professes to know about politics you obviously know nothing about lobbying. How much do you think Daimler/mytaxi has spent on vouchers/bonuses to date and how much do you think they'd need to put in brown envelopes to get drivers' reps on side? Do you think Heron went to the media to report 20,000 drivers leaving the trade because they got better jobs because he thinks that is true? Cop on, man!

Our licences are non-transferable.
-
They won't be allowed to operate an automated vehicle beside us meat eaters.Im not a legal expert or any expert but they can't run them yokes 24 hours a day and expect us to maintain a living.

I would never make any assertions on how intelligent some Reps might be or the hue of of an Envelope .
-
Why should they expect us to maintain a living, MfH?
-
It's a long way down the road but they won't bring in robot taxis for as long as us meat bags wanna stay in the industry.We can assume they'll be more efficient and hard working and honestly more productive.Theres gonna be a big push back against this tech when the kids see their parents on the scratcher in a few industries.

Where did you get the idea of Autonomous taxies .They will Daimler/Mytaxi Uber/Volvo .Lyft.Toyota just make electric vehicles available for licenced taxi drivers torent and drive their customers to their destination .I wouldnt worry for Fossils like You Me and the Rodent we will get our Coffins out of the Game but if I was 40 or under I wouldnt come near this industry .
-
There won't be any robot taxis, as such. More like robot Go Cars or robot hackneys. It's unlikely that we will be able to flag them down on the street like a regular blaxi. There'll be some form of booking/eHailing required. Nobody gave a fukk about wrench monkeys when robots started building cars, etc...
-
It's all part of the plan Erm.Have you been into Argos in Jervis or Mackers on the Kylemore road recently.They've replaced people with screens and are struggling to get customers to use the automated systems.Machines are cheaper but people like to deal with people no matter how many times they try push the customers to the screens.
-
Did you listen to the CEO from Volvo and listen closely to what he didnt say with his mouth .He said that you will rent the full package car insurance the lot .If Daimler/Volvo/Toyota decide to self insure their fleets that would put them in a very strong position world wide to team up with their prefered dispatchers who have all the pricing data gleaned from existing taxi drivers to offer a bespoke taxi service using the fastest rout and cheapest price .If they can get licenced drivers to do the steering and pay a monthly freight for the complete package as long as the driver can cover the freight and minimum wage they are on to a winner .
-
Screens can speak any language whereas immigrant taxi drivers are widely purported to struggle with ENGLISH.
