Minicab drivers say Uber’s bid to apply tax to all rides would put many out of business and leave people stranded

Uber will seek, at a supreme court hearing in July, a ruling on contractual models that affect whether VAT applies to private-hire companies outside London, which it has argued would level the playing field across the UK.
