found the local cabs to be way cheaper than Uber for airport trips.
But fkin hate have to make bookings well in advance and waiting ages fit them to arrive
Quite funny reading the Guardian comments. All the London-dwelling, Corbynista lefties are suddenly moaning about over-regulation and restraints on free trade. :hehe:Quote:

General secretary of the Licensed Taxi Drivers' Association Steve McNamara said: "The mayor has made the right call not to re-license Uber.
"We expect Uber will again embark on a spurious legal challenge against the mayor and TfL, and we will urge the court to uphold this decision.
"This immoral company has no place on London's streets."

Well, he is arguably talking about a rape app.Quote:

I wouldn't leave them alone with a stranger routinely, but surely we can generally trust people not to fúck/abduct our kids?Quote:

When one of this fellows proceded to a little bit molest her, complete with her protestations, her mother did ..... nothing, and pretended it wasn't happening.
Needless to say my ex was not best pleased with her mother for this, and she has to carry the memory of this abuse, which would have happened some time in the 1980s, through her life. Some might think, even if they dare not say it in polite society, that this is quite the portender for what would come to pass.
Hmm, sounds as though someone in TFL has had their palms nicely greased here. Perhaps the black cabbies have pooled together.Quote:

One would hope so. Here's another story.Quote:

"Is this your mother?" asked the first woman to the child. "Yes" replied the kid.
"Are you sure????" she demanded, holding the sprog back from its now-horrified mother being accused of potentially abducting her own child.
The child confirmed and the reunion was complete. It was wierd though, that for a moment the non-parent seemed to have 'legitimate' control over the fate of the child.
You would think in that situation the actual parent would have just produced a phone with a bazillion photos of said child. That's what happens every time i meet a parent these daysQuote:

Why are so many people anti-Uber?
I don't think they are. Most people love cheap stuff, even if it means cheap labour and low living standards for other people.Quote:
