The taxi strike

Available for over a year

About 100 Telford taxi drivers have protested outside the firm's headquarters in Shrewsbury on Tuesday. The drivers who are self-employed driver partners of Veezu said the rent they pay to the private hire company increased without consultation. Saf Khan, a driver and one of the protest's organisers said,"we don't want to be charged excessive fees for rent, and we don't want passengers to suffer as well."
