Yeah I'm not trying to run anyone down but we have to realise that we have a captive audience for 15/20 mins.Just because it seems like they agree with us doesn't mean we're on to something amazing that will change the country.I've never once asked the bus driver what he/she/they thinks about politics and I hope he/she/they never tries to talk to me about immigration.

Actually, one of my favourite "sports" is when they have a story about one of dem blacks not having a clue where somewhere is or how to get there. I agree that it's a disgrace and question how the fuck they got licensed while asking for directions at every junction!
If it doesn't have a roof sign and door stickers it's not a taxi.

Yeah I get that sometimes....they'll say 'Oh you're Irish,I'm glad you're not one of them foreigners overcharging me and not knowing where they're going'...sometimes I'll say 'you'd prefer to be robbed by one of your own so?No bother'.

Wether anyone on this forum sees taxi driving as a career ,or not, it is after all your livlehoods,and the degree with which most of you dont take your jobs serious,never ceases to amaze me.maybe its just me,but I tend to think if you have a young family,and domestic bills to pay,then you should be foremost in your challenge to prevent any breach of the regulations like PSV  licences being issued to immigrants who cannot even speak English.all this is happening because politicians are afraid of the immigrant council of Ireland

I guess most of us are on the home straight so to speak, just working for the odd holiday or whatever. I suppose you have to look at the bigger picture, too. A lot of taximen would have house(s) rented out and the vast majority own their own house. Hence high rents and high property prices will suit many... economic migrants are probably necessary to keep prices high, even if not at current levels. We're also human beings with lives outside of taxi driving, some of us with immigrant friends and colleagues who have enriched our lives to some extent.

Also, it's hard to argue against new entrants when all of the many many many drivers' unions have vocalised support for dispatch firms like mytaxi calling for more drivers.

Ratti do you know the way you keep sayin all the time that all them immigrants will be necessary to pay tax to pay for our pension and keep our spare gaffs rent up tru the roof?
How come we have produced so many babies of our own here...... That they have floodied the 4 corners of the earth and even now we have the busiest airport in Europe ferrying our young people all over the planet cause there's no fukin jobs in donegal, kerry or mayo to support them?? ???
I think you we'r conned by Leo verooka who keeps peddling that propaganda so he can fill this place full of foreigners.... In revenge of the white Irish male who called him a dirty Paki Queer years ago in class and turned Leo into a fuming, angry monotone cultural terminator bent on the destruction of the celtic race and 10,000 years of culture overnight......

Come the  revolution
