if it becomes the case that alignment becomes legally binding, would it be such a bad thing that one national dispatcher to which we all must sign up be introduced, set up,and run by government under the remit of the dept of transport
i would also suggest there be no fees incurred by drivers [ie] base fees, commssion fees,etc etc.
we would be providing a service to the public which would hopefully be run on a fair basis . no more work going out the back door to base mans cronys , no more being treated like employees, and the possibility of pension entitlements at a later stage.
i would like to see these benefits , and more, while at the same time maintaining our self employed status. this would eliminate tha radio companies from the industry, while at the same time making it a level playing field for all
