Taxi Driver Online

Another Uber strike - last week it was the ACDU, this week it's UPHD...

Same issues, though, namely the Supreme Court ruling and idle time, the fixed priced fares, and the 'unfair dismissals' thing.

The article also goes to town on the passenger angle, so it outlines stuff like the shortage of drivers, surge pricing, multi-apping, drivers being picky about runs because of dead mileage to pick up some runs, the fixed price stuff and LTNs putting them off doing some fares.

It's a huge article, with lots of different sections, graphics, and that video again.

So kudos to the MailOnline for its comprehensive coverage, but nothing particularly new for regulars on here, so didn't seem worth the effort of trying to put it all on here.


Uber drivers call strike TOMORROW: Workers set to switch-off taxi app in row over pay... causing nightmare for thousands already hit by petrol crisis

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/articl ... i-app.html

• The United Private Hire Drivers union is striking over pay and drivers' rights
• It is urging motorists to switch off the app and go to Uber's Aldgate offices
• The taxi industry has been hit hard by petrol shortages as have passengers

Have to wonder if this is a battle against Uber or who's got the biggest dick between the unions.
