Regardless of the merits of losing the London licence - which will almost certainly be temporary. I hope there will be some other group to take advantage and bring competition.

London Black cabs complain too much... about _everything_ .. yet I have not heard about them modernising.




If they just lose it for a week this could be fatal. I can imagine most drivers will now start signing up for competitors. As soon as the license is gone, people will switch to a competitor. If they offer similar service and price, there's no reason to come back to Uber. The only way then is to start giving away free rides again.
