In a shock move, Uber has had its license to operate revoked by Transport for London.

TfL made the announcement on Friday, saying that Uber will not be issued with another private hire operator license after its current license expires on 30 September.

The transport regulator said that it has made its decision based on concerns about Uber’s “approach and conduct” and passenger safety. It concluded that Uber had shown “a lack of corporate responsibility” with regard to potential safety and security issues.

“Private hire operators must meet rigorous regulations, and demonstrate to TfL that they do so, in order to operate,” said TfL in a statement, adding: “TfL has concluded that Uber London Limited is not fit and proper to hold a private hire operator license.”
