As these comments are before the appeal is even heard I think the Mayor should keep his trap shut.
First Khan penned an article for the Guardian titled: "Uber deserved to lose its licence".
Then he said it would be "improper for politicians to interfere with a quasi-judicial matter".
Now he appears to be interfering.
Either he's totally clueless and a complete liability, or he knows it's a done deal so he can say what he likes knowing it won't be held against TfL in court.
Always thought TfL were simply sabre-rattling to force Uber's hand on compliance. Think they got a bit too cosy and had to show them who's boss. Probably knew all along Uber would just play ball and the business would continue in pretty much its current form.
Of course, the employment status case probably more of a threat to Uber, but the fantasists who think that has any bearing on Uber's fit and proper status are in for a rude awakening.
