While many Tweeters were furious that TfL was threatening what they saw as a cheap, convenient mode of transport, others flagged up the wide-reaching criticism that the brand has faced over the years.
TFL claiming is unsafe is all very well. But it's a lot safer than the Night Bus I'll have to take home now.

A lot wrong with Uber but they have radically improved my SE London transport options

Uber has never shown any interest in going out of their way to meet any standards of compliance though

In London, Women are gonna have to pay a premium to feel safe getting home now. Uber was affordable and easy.

You all mock Birmingham but guess who still has uber

Not necessarily... as a few keen observers noted, the story isn't over yet.
