Anyone got any idea how many driver associations presently exist in London and what the membership numbers are?

About three years ago I posted on this site that the London T&G membership was about 5%, giving them just over a thousand members. I have information dating back to 1992 that tells me the LTDA had around 28% membership, that's in the region of 6,000 but combined it only accounts for 33% of drivers, I would be grateful if anyone has any knowledge of figures for any other driver organisation? I suspect the LTDA membership may have increased since 1992 but by how much, I do not know?

Regards

JD

Londons premier driver representatives, the LTDA, now have over 9000 members.

Londons not so premier GMB have about 24, and two of them thought they were joining the RAC.

:wink:
