The £1500 payment is an insult to taxi drivers who provide a vital service. THEY DESRVE TO BE TREATED BETTER.

Because I feel the taxi industry has been treated unfairly during the covid pandemic. And has been treated unfairly in comparison to other buisnessess.
We demand equality for the taxi industry.

Although 1500 is a big help,it falls far short of what we need to keep going.

Taxi driver need support more equivalent to the furlough scheme. 80%, 70% and 40% of profits are not good enough especially when costs outweigh profits.

In this pandemic why are we not looking after the most vulnerable who form part of the life blood of our economy in the absence of a pandemic in our society. A token gesture of less than £10 a day is insulting.
