An Early Day Motion (EDM) has been tabled calling for the reform of taxi and private hire legislation to be brought forward as a matter of public safety.

The EDM supported by Cambridge MP Daniel Zeichner urges other MPs to sign the motion. The calls for new legislation aim to provide a safer and more robust system.

Now it's fair to say parliament has other things on it's mind, and it is early days of the EDM, but currently it has two signatures, including the proposer. :-k

That's why you have been away. In a Monastery reflecting on the error of your vote.

Good to see the Captain on here again. Welcome back.

Can't see anything being achieved before a General Election, then it's "start all over again".

Don't be so sure the country is still roughly split 50:50 on leave or stay any election I expect the Lib Dems and Brexit parties to make big gains so might be another hung parliament
