BBC article on blind man & his guide dog repeatedly rejected by taxis in London

Just read the BBC article relating to a blind chap who uses taxis to get to work (he is an organist) and several taxis refuse to take him as they don’t want his guide dog in their taxi. But the pick drunks who regularly throw up in their taxi right?

All form of discrimination is awful, but I am not sure there has been enough focus on discrimination against the blind and other handicapped people in society. These folk are largely left to suffer indignity in silence as we get carried away with other more typical forms of discrimination

Appalling really!
