Transport for London has announced that it will not renew Uber’s private hire licence after concluding it is “not fit and proper” to hold one.
TfL said the taxi-hailing app had demonstrated “a lack of corporate responsibility in relation to a number of issues which have potential public safety and security implications”.
It has informed the US-based company that it will not be issued with a new licence after the expiry of its current licence on 30 September.
