        @BBCBreaking @BBCNews If it was a non-Uber driver the headline NEVER would have named the cab company.

        @FitzDrum I was about to say the same thing. Uber is just an app version of calling a minicab. Nothing more. People should leave them alone!

        @flaminis_sleeve @MathewRead Even less checks are done by cab companies. Don't be fooled - it's pure anti-business, pro-Gov't media bias.

        @flaminis_sleeve @MathewRead Not by their choice; it's the kind of Gov't begging all companies forced to do in order to conduct biz.

        @flaminis_sleeve @MathewRead ...that Gov't lords over business in that way, is in fact an anti-business activity.

        @flaminis_sleeve Do we have many Indian Uber drivers in the UK? Otherwise, I don't see the significance...
