Black cab drivers will be happy
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
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."

Looooooooooool you would think he's talking about a *****phile app
I left my daughter in an Uber for about 5 minutes recently with a driver called Muhammad as I dropped off my son at nursery.
I felt well not racist :cloud9:

He raped her :-(
Here's a true story, according to my ex:
My ex, who is french, had very 'liberal/progressive' mother who wanted to show how non-racist she was by inviting some young maghrebian men into their home, where they were seated on the sofe next to her daughter, who was I think in her early teens at that time. 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.
Oh! Well done for resisting your urges, Muhammed!
You cannot trust them to not fall asleep, though. My Uber to the airport the other day was alarming to say the least as my driver often seemed to be driving with his eyes closed, only waking up as his tyres hit the rumble strips/cats eyes.
This meant that I was forced to make conversation I'd really have preferred to avoid in order to keep the guy awake.
One would hope so. Here's another story.
I was in a pub in one of the streets just south of the British Museum when a woman came in, with a child and saying "has anyone lost their child?"
"Yes!" exclaimed another woman who had come into the pub looking for her lost child and went to claim her sprog.
"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.
I don't recall. I do remember the kid looked like this though:

I hear that despicable bunghole Jeff Bezos owns a chunk of Uber, so an extra two cheers if he is unhappy.
Why are so many people anti-Uber?
