After 18 months of poaching , parking on Blackpool Taxi ranks encouraging visitors to approach their vehicles to download the Uber App . BLACKPOOL COUNCiL bereft of any powers to stop the economic juggernaut of a ride share app from America with a shed load of dollars .Uber has applied to destroy the Private Hire  Industry in the resort and leave hard working professional , by being granted a license to operate in the town.

Already the standards of Driving in the town has deteriorated,  Tram tracks being used to pick up the next ride share customer , parking in Bus bays outside nightclubs begging for work , economic migrants from Stockport Liverpool Sefton Preston . Manchester, Sefton, Bolton Lancaster, Ribble,  Valley , all turning up to dilute an already weak market , will cause job losses , safety issues , increased crime , people posing as licensed vehicles as these family cars no longer have stickers , just plates that are removed to pick the kids up from school .

Drivers have no local knowledge, sat nav pretenders £300 to buy a ride share job ! 

Cheap licenses 300k issued by Wolverhampton Council nationwide  to enable the Great British destruction of locally based transport systems protected for generations by.local bye laws and rigorous safety inspections.

Now degenerating into a  discount car boot sale ,  ride share , monster that needs curtailing very quickly ....
