Black Cab Protest at TalkSport Towers

Post by carcinogen »

Just read Charlie Sale's coloumn in The Daily Fail and he mentioned the ongoing protest outside of TalkSport Towers by black-cab drivers. Protesting about Uber being advertised on the station. Particular ire is focused on 'The Sports Bar' with Andy Goldstein.

Now I don't listen to Mr. Goldstein, but I know of his work. And it is fucking shit. So this story cheered me up this morning. I'm quite conflicted with the whole Uber thing, I have to be honest. But if somehow Andy's life is made more miserable, I am a very happy soul.

Mrs. Kite: From what I can see, the only time you ever jolly well *do* any work is when you're on strike.

Is it being reported or even mentioned on talkSPORT news bulletins or programmes?

...apart from the ones that drug and rape women. Surely there is a place in your heart for those kind souls.
