Uber Win for GMB
GMB wins a historic victory as TfL tells Uber to ‘Get Out of London’ – my photos, shot on commission for the GMB campaign (contact GMB for press images).
GMB, the union for taxi and professional drivers, joins forces with advocacy organisation SumOfUs to hand in a 100,000-strong petition to City Hall calling on Transport for London to guarantee its drivers’ rights and protect the public. The mass petition is handed in to Labour London Assembly Member Unmesh Desai, who has backed the campaign – and who will submit it to TfL as it considers Uber’s application for a new operating licence in London.

Clashes break out and arrests are made as anti-fascist protestors try to stop a far right National Front march in Grantham, Lincolnshire, UK. National Front supporters unfurled a Confederate flag to show their solidarity with the far groups of recent events in Charlottesville, America.
After the initial clashes, the National Front were allowed to march through the market town, hold a short rally in the town square and march back to the pub in the rain.
