Was it Fonacab or Value Cabs the taxi driver that released the video footage of the couple in his car worked for?
Another taxi driver in Belfast in a bit of bother now

Staged?
Looks like the cars own dashcam!
Unless Fonacab are insisting drivers fit them and the driver is thick as champ and doesn't know they are always on and broadcasting to the office.
What's this all about?
Surely couldn't be real :o
Have seen a name and that he was collecting for east belfast uvf. Not convinced it's not a spoof though
Surely he can't be that stupid?
Looks like it's from a while back. Looks legit

Evidently he is, but sure the peelers will let him off as having guns in your car isn't that big of a deal nowadays if you're on the PSNI payroll.
Shares the same apparently as the full forward of the Meath team of the 1980's

I always liked Meath's FF Brian Stafford.

Oh it's true. Its damn true.
Has he been scooped?
He'll just be replaced by some other sc**bag
This is nuts, there's absolutely no way in the world this is true! Has to be staged
It's like a bad movie ;D

It reminded me of Joey in Friends making the scene in his apartment, after he was cut from a TV show. Then shows hi s granny, so she thinks he was really in the show
All that was missing here was someone threatening to shoot a duck
The timestamp on the video is March 26th
Co. has issued statement. No denial.
Looks like it's not fake. Bloody hell.

What like the other stuff is good for investment? You really are daft ;D
Will be interesting to see how this pans out. Wonder will the Donaghadee KC be taking an unfair dismissal case for him the way he did the lad from Emerson's? Have to say that the NI Industrial Tribunals is the place to be at the moment with Donna Traynor there too with the BBC!!
Watched it again there, it's almost like a comedy sketch, smacking your man in the gob with the big hand cannon, then telling him he'd have lost his knees if it wasn't for his "mate" in the back all the while turning round and pointing the gun at the "mate".
The "mate" then almost in shock saying he's shaking like a leaf....
Only in Belfast. ;D

Apologising to the fella in the back too.
Think I prefer the dashcam footage from Value Cabs better :P
The turning around was so similar to the classic scene in Pulp Fiction....takes yer man a split second then decides he be better off movin his head 😂😂
Poor Marvin never got the same chance 😃

Was there a ruling on the Emerson unfair dismissal case yet?

Not yet. Generally it takes 3-4 months for a ruling but given that this case was heard by the President I suspect the decision will be out sooner...he doesn't hang around!

If it's the one in the estate surrounded by ghetto rats. That's another (loyalist sc**bag) fella entirely, lifted in Cregagh estate for possession of a machete.

Because it was initially portrayed as Loyalist drug gangs in a turf fight, local media tried to get the Loyalist part dropped off all reporting on this as the peelers walked hand in hand with these lads through the town and had the helicopter hovering over the place.
The media coverage died a death yet the petrol bombings of certain businesses and houses went on, people being relocated to other area's etc etc.
You can't be having that in the press as we start the marching season, nothing to see here, move swiftly on.
