At least not in any sense that would require Uber to grant them the legal rights guaranteed by the Employment Rights Act 1996, the Working Time Regulations Act 1998 or the National Minimum Wage Act 1998. Drivers new to private hire can be intially pleased with their earnings from Uber, because their day to day consumable costs seem relatively low. It represents both an active threat to Uber’s continuing ability to function in London, and a contributing factor to the firm’s developing existential crisis.

It was simply a brand umbrella under which 30,000 independently licensed minicab firms chose to operate.

As the employment case brutally highlighted, however, there is no clever contractual language that, under English law, will allow them to maintain that distinction forever. Google briefly removed the extension last week when Uber flagged it as a trademark violation, but reversed its decision after Samii appealed. I am satisfied the [tribunal] did not err either in its approach or in its conclusions when rejecting the contention that the contract was between driver and passenger and that ULL was simply the agent in this relationship, providing its services as such to the drivers. A Court ruling in California has no bearing on proceedings in the UK, but is probably worth noting as it increases the overall pressure on the Uber financial operating model.

Until then the view was that all the issues over air pollution would just blow over and we would be back to business as usual. Though he was from Sweden, he seemed to have the same attitude that cars would be segregated from other road-users. As a potential passenger I might be nervous about being in a vehicle that could be told by an official looking person to turn back and go somewhere other than my intended destination. The reason given for disablement was that it affected passenger comfort but probably impacted Uber’s ability to develop their software. Similarly the concept of “fit and proper” is sufficient to require more care than simple box ticking.

Having read you pieces on Uber, I’m still slightly baffled at how they struggle to come even close to making a profit (your quote from New York about only covering 40% of costs is staggering). Over the subsequent pages of their ruling they gently, but firmly, tore a gaping hole in Uber’s legal definition of itself. Uber – or rather ULL and UBV separately – were simply providing them access to a space in which they could perform for money. Uber London Limited has been granted a two-month private hire operator licence to allow for scrutiny of additional information that we are requesting ahead of consideration of any potential further licensing application.

It felt like it didn't matter which supermarket I went to, they would almost always have hoisin duck as an option on their meal deal shelves.
