GMB tests Uber 'self-employed drivers' claim at London tribunal

It high time all taxi and private hire drivers where employed ,especially all those working under or for an office, the offices overcharging for rentals drivers working 70 to 80 hours a week.

It doesn't matter if the driver owns the car, if they are working under that office they should be employed .

Areas outside the large city's drivers in some areas are lucky to take home £2.50 an hour, and its all because of a HM revenue loophole on who pays the fuel, especially on split bags.

If a driver refuses a run the office can sack them without any comeback, so the drivers have no choice in the matter, then there are school contracts, are drivers able to refuse to do them, are they hell as like.

so its time everyone was entitled to at least the min wage
