Sean Paul Day: "Lets not get distracted"

The unmistakable war cry from one of the trades most hardened taxi advocates hit home to many on social media this weekend.

Sean Paul Day of taxiapp and London Taxi Radio published his take on where the trade are right now. The underlining message is not to be distracted by the simple fact that "Uber's operation is illegal".

Sean Paul said: "Before we start talking about, whether the signs at the O2 are lawful or not...

Whether Taxify can legally use the name or not....

Whether fake DBS/Medical PH drivers should be suspended

Whether the number of PH drivers should be capped or not...

Whether Uber's working model deems them employers or not...

Whether all operators should have a landline or not...

Whether Uber should be stopped operating from special areas at Westfield shopping centres...

Whether Uber should have their operators license revoked or not... Before we concern ourselves with any of the above, let's not forget Uber's operation is illegal! LETS NOT GET DISTRACTED! Any talk about how their operation can be contained only serves to legitimise their modus operandi."
