A comment on Uber London loses licence to operate. Parent comment
The underground is way too crowded, but so are the roads (mainly because of taxis these days).
This makes Uber a better bet than taxis (more efficient) buses better than both, bikes best of all and something in between a nirvana.
However, none of that matters as long as Uber think they're above the law.
TfL has the incentive to follow London mayoral policy; the MoL has concerns beyond travel.
