Black cab drivers have lost a High Court challenge to strike down Uber's licence to operate in London.

Dismissing the case, the Lord Chief Justice, Lord Burnett, said the judge who granted the licence - Lord Arbuthnot - was not biased.

Lord Burnett, who is the top judge in England and Wales, struck down the claim against the 15-month permit granted to Uber. "Having ascertained all the circumstances bearing on the suggestion that the judge was biased, we consider that those circumstances would not lead a fair-minded and informed observer to conclude that there was a real possibility that the judge was biased in this case," Lord Burnett said.

The black cabbies need to stop whining. The knowledge is no longer relevant. Sat nav is all you need to get around any major city. Adapt or go extinct.. uber is cheap, reliable, and here to stay..

why! I would rather have a black cab than aney other

Liverpool Street to Bank please, .......... that’ll be £18.......... there’s your problem.

Once black cab drivers lower their prices and don't act like they own the road when they drive in their big clunky cab, then maybe a solution can be agreed.

If the Black cab drivers had any sense? They'd start 'Blockading' London's busiest roads with their vehicles in protest daily until something is done.

Dont worry u will here a lot about UTAG17 in the very near future

Dig out the yellow vests and make a stand

I am not a fan of Uber. They are undercutting the traditional black cab drivers who have to take TheKnowledge to become qualified taxiers.

Good news. Over priced Black cab drivers are always moaning about something or other.
