Private hire drivers protest congestion charge
London Bridge & City Hall, London. Thu 4 Apr 2019
Cones blocked the north end of London Bridge with only those cars
that were part of the protest being allowed through
and the south end was also blocked to stop traffic not coming for
the protest
Drivers parked their cars on the bridge and got out to meet up in
the middle
Some had brought drums
The Mini Cab Drivers Association banner

Several of the drivers' leaders spoke
including UPHD co-founder James Farrar (right)
THe drivers march to City Hall
along Tooley St
and march around CIty Hall
to protest noisily outside
A man comes out from City Hall and tells them he understands their
problems and will do his best to find a solution.
