“Having been a cabbie for several years, I feel for this poor driver. Cabbies see the best of the public and they also see the scum . . . but they still welcome all who enter their cabs and do a GREAT JOB.

Where would YOU BE without cabbies working at night and Christmas when everyone else is having fun?? My heart goes out to the cabbie who was attacked - hope you recover quickly and I also hope your fellow cabbies are putting their hand in their pockets for you . .they certainly would have done in my day.
All the best, mate.
Cabbies deserve more respect.”

“just thought i would let you all know i am sorry for wearing the miniskirt and will be handing myself in first thing hope i go down cos i had to take the the money to get into the nomad sorry”

“you plebs. will you stop going on about fat and ginger. this has got nothing to do with the real story, ie taxi driver punched and robbed.”

“My son is a taxi driver and while you all seem to be making fun of the perpetrators does it not occur to you that the takings that were stolen leaves the victim with no money for a full nights work. At Christmas that is not funny and I hope they find them quickly. I personally would like to give them a Christmas present they wouldn't like. Scumbags !!!”

“Blimey a fat ginger bird on the loose, whats the world coming to..I hope the taxi driver is ok..anyhow has anyone actually thought that this fat thing might have a pleasant personality, well maybe not if she hangs around with scum that only attack when the driver is seated, I just hope he didnt wake up next to it the following morning. strewth man get a grip.”

“How wonderful to see such blatent discrimination alive and well, especially at this time of year. It makes one proud to live in Lincoln.”

“I was reading this story with great interest but read with even more interest the comments that everyone has put on here about the fat ginger bird.

I must say that i do agree and someone who is fat and ginger should not be allowed out in a short white mini skirt, its a sight for sore eyes for sure.”

“Maybe the male needed the money to bolt off home having realised a dog is for life not just a one night stand at Christmas?”

“the biggest crime here is that somebody fat and ginger was out wearing a white mini skirt. They must have robbed the driver in order to obtain 50 pences for the electricity meter as I'm guessing the female must have gotten dressed in the dark?”

“Is there anything worse than fat ginger birds? I can't think of anything, i hope the police catch her and lock her away from the rest of humanity”
