Cabbies Block Pick Best Day Ever to Hold Protest Against TFL and Uber

Description

Drivers of iconic London cabs decided to take to the streets, to block traffic and protest against the state-run Transport for London organization and taxi app Uber, making sure that their voices would be heard by the people of London. London's cabbies argue that TFL have helped Uber in failing to regulate the company. The cabbies, who blocked a key and central part of the city, hope the protest will result in a public inquiry into TFL.
