If culchies are getting subsidies so they can imbibe their drug of choice, maybe urban taxi drivers should get subsidies to drive junkies on their drug runs.

What's good for the goose should be good for the gander?

You would think Publicans in the spirit of humanity would provide transport for the drunk revellers.
Morons peddling the last legal drug, all closing at exactly the same time .
Going so far as getting late licences to prevent nightclubs getting their business.
Then they hurl all the punters on to the street and complain about the lack of transport.
I fucking hate Publicans, they own the Politicians.

Exactly SB......but they also now have the NTA subsidising insurance from taxi licence fees.....and as we know the taxi industry is very financially viable for the NTA,when the Taxi Regulator was subsumed into the NTA it brought with it €20 million....which disappeared into fukin thin air....at a PAC meeting,the geezer from the NTA couldn't account for where that money went to only to say salaries for employees,no fukin records....imagine any of us giving Revenue a shrug of the shoulders and some bullshit fairytale!!

I wouldn't willingly drive for a pub job not knowing who the fuk you're picking up....i make the decision on who i pick up from OUTSIDE a pub as i drive up to it.

I totally agree, between Midnight and 4am any night, then I want a Butchers at my customer and I'll make the decision if I want to pick them up or not. Dinny, Joe or Padge pissed as coots going up the road fer a Fiver, No Thanks !

Some of them have to get to a pub to buy their gear in the country.

This all smells of unfair competition for us....who pay the costs and comply with the many rules and regulations....It won't work.... I will
