Uber driver launches landmark High Court challenge over TfL licence renewal delays

Julius Mugabo, an Uber driver since 2016, is suing Transport for London in the High Court over delays in renewing his private hire licence, which he says caused significant financial hardship. This is the first legal challenge of its kind, and the union claims thousands of drivers in London have lost income due to the 'broken system'. The case could set a precedent for how TfL handles licence renewals and may have broader implications for the gig economy.
