TAXI DRIVERS-ARE YOU BLIND? DOWNLOAD YOUR APPLICATION IN BRAILLE!


If you happen to be a BLIND TAXI DRIVER then Portsmouth is the place to work.

All taxi drivers have to fill in a TAXI DRIVERS APPLICATION FORM but a note on the Portsmouth City Council website says the documents can be downloaded in large print, Braille or audio.  A spokesman for Portsmouth City Council explained, "We are an EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES COUNCIL and as such we encourage people with disabilities to participate in the life of the city.  TAXI PASSENGERS don't find too much trouble getting to their destination as long as they tell the driver when to turn either right or left".

The head of Police Traffic Operations for Portsmouth, D.I. Burke, told Dark Lochnagar, " As a whole we don't find that the BLIND TAXI DRIVERS have any more accidents than say, ordinary women drivers.  Most of them are MASONS anyway, so that's all right then".

Portsmouth City Council are currently advertising for a HEAD OF WASTE DISPOSAL at £120k per year who must be able to show a minimum of two years public abuse whilst working as a council binman.
