59,000 Ph drivers in London in 2010 116,000 Ph drivers now whether there working for Uber Addison Lee or whoever it's not hard to see the problem, it would be interesting to know what percentage of Uber drivers are new to the trade and what percentage have moved from other firms.

Quite pleased Mr Field is continuing to put the pressure on Uber.

The government need to act.
