So Tfl no doubt reluctantly stepped up to defend the traveller, but with little choice after many transgressions and then the final stake through the heart written by the upright citizen and proper copper that is Inspector Billany who exposed the applicant for what they were
unfit and improper.
Crocodile Tears
Cue the social media frenzy and parade of bought advertorials, no mark politicos and all those bleeding hearts about 40000 people being thrown on the scrap heap, yet if and when Driverless cars appear the very same people will say nowt when quadruple that number go west, 'its cheep though innit'.
We all know most will just sign up with another operator or possibly join the ranks of world renown by completing the KOL, if not their just holding a one way ticket to Loserville courtesy of the West Coast Bro's.

Well that's what the trade has been viewed as by all and sundry, we have been as Gilligan said Balkanised, so those in Unions, Trade Orgs ensure that YOU get involved, campaign for joined up thinking and accountability, defining PFH and ensuring TfL maintain the differential of the two tier system, after all that's what they say they want.
Sleeping Lions
Sorry again that's us, whatever happens after the Lawyers have had their feast, be sure things will never be the same, let's be sharp, smart and savvy.
You can bet every PH firm will be looking to grab market share, let's do the same and whatever we do always remember this:
If you value it, defend it!

TAXI LEAKS EXTRA :
Listen to Wes Streeting's Tweet.
Why TFL were right not to renew Uber's licence and why their business model should concern all of us.

Need to set up a petition. To get uber to revel there long term plan. We all know that they don't make a profit. Obviously there not doing it out of the goodness of there heart. So maybe they should tell everyone what there real prices would be. If they manage to run the taxi trade out of business than let's see how popular they are
you need to kill them stone dead, you cant in this day and age carry on with the prices you charge. everyone has had a haircut, take the bull by the horns now or you will lose it forever as sure as night follows day uber will be back.
Prices we charge? People need to wake up and realise that taxis are designed for short journeys from a to b and are priced extremely fairly! My first 8 jobs yesterday were
£6.40
£4.40
£8.00
£7.80
£4.20
£16.80
£7.00
£5.00
That is for a 5 seater vehicle that is fully wheelchair accessible! So the above fares can be divided by up to 5 times making a lot of journeys equivalent or cheaper than the tube or bus! yes, we will be more expensive at night and for journeys over 5 miles, but when you take into account the costs of running a cab (clear less than 70% of my takings) what do you think they run on air? UB£R charge less because their running costs are less, but with UB£R taking 25% (TWENTY FIVE PERCENT) on every job, on a £10 job, they are likely to clear around £4. It's ok for people to spend £5 on a cup of coffee in starbucks, but 5 people going from Waterloo to the West End, £2 each (or less) is too expensive!!!!
Actually, what i should have said is UB£R charge less becuase of predatory pricing
