Uber has been stripped of its licence in the capital, in a shock move by Transport for London today which said the firm is not "fit and proper" to hold a licence.

"TfL's regulation of London's taxi and private hire trades is designed to ensure passenger safety. Private hire operators must meet rigorous regulations, and demonstrate to TfL that they do so, in order to operate. TfL must also be satisfied that an operator is fit and proper to hold a licence," said the body in a statement.
