    Taxi drivers no to Lisbon?

    Bad news for the No side if the Taxi drivers collectively say no to Lisbon. Aine Lawlor on Morning Ireland put it to Tommie Gorman of the Taxi drivers union that she saw Taxis with 'Taxi drivers no to Lisbon' stickers. Gorman said it was just individuals.
    If the Taxi drivers do come out for a No vote it will probably send a multiple into the arms of the Yes vote!

    They came out against Nice.
    I'm sure they'll be happy to come out against Lisbon.
    Its against Irish interests, and they're smart people.
    A pint of NO is your only man.

    The point is that Taxi drivers can piss off a lot of people. If Taxi drivers come out for a No vote it is likely to convince a multiple number into the arms of the Yes side.

    Taxi dRivers, renegade farmers, terrorists, Future Taoiseach. Who's up next for a bit of No? The Irish Rapists Association? The Guild of Liveline Callers?

    I thought it was a union...

    But yeah, could be god, god be bad, all depends on how this strike thingy goes today.
    Every one sees what you appear to be, few really know what you are, and those few dare not oppose themselves to the opinion of the many, who have the majesty of the state to defend them.

    If the Tax Collectors or Dentists collectively come out against Lisbon, the NO side'll be in big trouble...
