London, UK. 23rd September 2017. A mincab driver in the IWGB speaks about the Uber ban and their forthcoming protest at TfL calling on TfL to demand that Uber recognise their drivers as workers at the rally outside the Ritzy Cinema in Brixton where workers were celebrating a year of strike action. The BECTU strikers demand the London Living Wage, sick pay, maternity and paternity pay, for managers, supervisors, chefs and technical staff to be properly valued for their work, and for the four sacked union reps to be reinstated. There were a number of speeches in English and in Spanish, including news from other campaigns elsewhere, some successful and others ongoing, including by a minicab driver involved in the campaign by IWGB to get Uber to recognise the court judgement that their drivers are workers, who was critical of TfL and Mayor Khan for not highlighting Uber's failure to meet their responsibilities to their staff. The Ritzy had closed for the event taking place outside. A surprise came with the arrival to cheers of a newly acquired 'Precarious Workers Mobile' bright yellow Reliant Robin, equipped with a powerful amplifier and loudspeaker, and after more speeches this led the protesters in a slow march around central Brixton.
