I have not forgotten how many times (basically, every time) I tried to get a black cab to take me "south of the river" only to be told to f* off. I also haven't forgotten the more recent experiences of having to pay 30 quid to go a couple of miles. We don't do possession; we do defense and attack.

The unions have failed in getting better pay and conditions for their members for years. They are more concerned about flogging them credit cards and financial 'services', and making sure that people who can't decide whether they are a man or a woman get appropriate toilet facilities. We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men. [Orwell]

Shout at me if I'm wrong, but doesn't the taxpayer subsidise all airlines, in that there's no duty on aviation fuel? There may not be VAT either (I honestly don't know). Although there is of course a tax on the 'customer' when buying a ticket. Palace since 19 August 1972. Palace 1 (Tony Taylor) Liverpool 1 (Emlyn Hughes)
