Many UK drivers for platforms including Uber, Bolt and Addison Lee are planning to
on Valentine’s Day, as part of a push to demand better pay and conditions.The UK supreme court ruled in 2021 that Uber drives are
– meaning they can access rights such as holiday pay – but unions say conditions have worsened since then, saying companies responded by cutting rates.The Independent Workers Union of Great Britain (IWGB) is planning a demonstration outside London’s City Hall on 14 February, alongside private hire drivers logging off and not working.
We want to hear from you. Are you a private hire driver who will be affected by the developments? What do you think of your working conditions? What will be your reasons for either logging off or continuing to work on 14 February?
