No, Mr. Wicks is in Reading.


How did you work that one out? If you must know then I live in
Maidenhead, and am rather insulted by the 'Reading' claim. I avoid
that monstrosity like the plague, along with Slough.

I won't be any more specific about where I live, because the nutters
on here seem to make a habit of posting maps to people's houses, and
photographs of them, and even visiting them in some cases. And all
because we dare to cycle. These people have been failed by the NHS in
that they should surely have received help for their clear mental
problems by now. It is just not reasonable to go round and bang on
someone's door and scream abuse at them just because they cycle.

I never said that you lived in Reading. I agree, it's a horrible town.

Is any needed, when it is not disputed that one or more posters published a
Google Maps reference to the address where they believed JMS to be resident?

Additionally, and though I can't say it happened in *this* newsgroup
specifically, I have lost count of the number of times posters have specified
the address at which they thought Doug lives.

Although I can't recall a particular incident, has your address not been
publicised here?

Cwispin did so IIRC. In one of his bouts of desperation.

**** off - there is no evidence that anyone took such action.

There was a poster here : Porky Chapman - who claimed such things. He was
going to take someone through the courts to try and ruin the person's life. As
things progressed he realised that *he* would be called as a witness and cross
examined. Given that he had registered an email address - purely to harass
and intimidate this other person - he had second thoughts and the planned
court case was pulled at the last minute.

Porky Chapman came out of that little episode looking like the real knob that
he is - he is now the laughing stock of any number of groups. The good thing
to come out of it is the fact that he is so embarrassed by it all, that he has
at last ****ed off and left us in peace.


(You would get on well with him as he is also a God-botherer)

Default Manchester minicab drivers stage go-slow protest over bus lane 'discrimination'

pick up or drop off passengers, while drivers of Hackney carriages –
or black cabs – are permitted to do so.


It was a bit of a damp squib apparently.

Only 60 turned up - the rest said they'd be there in 'about 5 minutes'

Boom boom :-)

That's a plain lie. I have had no occasion to send you email. I realise
that someone who follows up over and over again to his own posts clearly
has a screw loose, so you don't need to prove it by making reference to
fictitious emails or to fictitious "permission" to post to a newsgroup.

Nor indeed would such permission, even if granted, have any meaning or
give you any rights not afforded to all posters.

I'll now leave you to get back to clucking and moaning and generally
embarassing yourself, something that you do so well.

stopping in bus lanes to pick up or drop off passengers, while
drivers of Hackney carriages – or black cabs – are permitted to
do so.


The protest has clear echoes of the ongoing dispute in London
between Britain’s biggest private hire operator, Addison Lee, and
Transport for London, with a judicial review due under way to
decide whether current rules which permit licensed cabs to drive
in bus lanes but prevent minicabs for doing so are
discriminatory.


Last month, TfL secured a High Court injunction to prevent
Addison Lee drivers from seeking to ignore current rules, which
they had been instructed to do in a letter sent to them by the
firm’s founder and chairman, John Griffin, who had said that the
company would indemnify them in respect of any fines and other
costs they incurred as a result.


Cycle campaigners in London have campaigned against minicabs
being allowed in bus lanes in the city, which are seen as
providing a refuge of sorts for cyclists from much of the
capital’s traffic.


Quoted on BBC News, Nigel Murphy Manchester City Council’s
executive member for the environment, maintained that permitting
minicabs to use bus lanes "would affect the reliability of bus
services, which huge numbers of people in Manchester depend upon
to get access to work, education or healthcare.


"Today's protest will do nothing but cause more congestion in the
city, aggravating people who are trying to go about their
business."


Speaking on behalf of the Private Hire Association, solicitor
James Parry commented: "We now have something like 2,500 taxi
drivers in Manchester and 1,500 Hackney carriage drivers.


"Anybody who can't get a Hackney carriage, because they don't
happen to have one drive past their door, has to pre-book a
vehicle and they are likely to have a private hire vehicle come
to their door.


"They charge more because they can't use the bus lanes so they
can't for example get to Victoria Station easily or as quickly as
a Hackney carriage would.


"That is discriminatory, it is unnecessary and it doesn't serve
the city very well in the Private Hire Association's view."
