Member of the Senedd for Cardiff Central, @JennyRathbone, thanks members of the #Cardiff Taxi Trade for raising over £10,000, despite struggling financially themselves, during the #COVID19 pandemic. @HackneyCardiff @2000jama

Cardiff Taxi & PH drivers extend their gratitude to @JennyRathbone for her valuable time to be present when the drivers gifted a cheque for £3k to @alikhlascec as part of over £10k raised by drivers in these unprecedented times of difficulty in the trade and her amazing interview

🚨The labour MS @JennyRathbone has praised the “extraordinary” generosity of @UniteWales #taxi #drivers who donated £10,000 to foodbanks in the city. 🍲 Many drivers had struggled financially during the pandemic were left unable to feed their families. @alikhlascec @UniteWales

Great news for Taxi/PH drvrs in Crdiff, third discretionary grant from @WelshGovernment is welcomed. To show our appreciation drivers have raised over £10k for those who are struggling with food poverty and rely on #foodbanks across #Cardiff @BBCWalesNews @ITVWales @voice_wales

Presumably, thanks to pressure from ourselves and others, the @scotgov have seen sense and with immediate effect, removed clause in grant scheme that would've stopped many taxi drivers from having access to financial help. Thanks everyone who has supported the trade in this.

Desperate times for our trade and we've still not had any help from @scotgov. Lindsay has been out for 5 hours today and not had a single job. Like Lindsay, all Scotlands taxi drivers are financially broken. Here's his story. #solidaritywithLindsay

The sad thing is, is that it is the #selfemployed #TaxiDrivers that use the @veezugroup systems that will ultimately be paying his wages. And for what?

Worth another retweet of this legalised corruption. Why would Veezu Holdings Ltd (@veezugroup) - who run Amber Cars, Dragon Taxis, etc. - employ this talentless individual? To stop people like me from ever considering using their services? Use @letDRIVEtakeU instead!



Taxi drivers get completing

If your business has been affected by the restrictions put in place on Dec 4th, there is further financial support available through a Rates-bases grant and a Discretionary Grant. Details on how Cardiff businesses can apply in the link below. Please share.

Unite Regional Officer @AlanMcC4rthy speaking at today's demonstration where our members in the taxi trade were calling for Welsh Government support which will help them pay their bills, support their families and make their vehicles Covid safe.


Taxi Drivers of Cardiff reposted

Big, angry protest happening now outside Welsh Government offices in Cathays Park, Cardiff by the city's taxi drivers who are furious about soaring poverty in the trade and are demanding an emergency bailout from Welsh Gov. They say they've received no help so far.


Taxi Drivers of Cardiff reposted

Taxi drivers in #Cardiff are protesting right now! They're calling on the @WelshGovernment for more financial support to help survive the pandemic.

Our members in the taxi trade have arrived at the Welsh Government buildings in Cardiff. Their message is loud and clear Welsh Government sector specific support is needed now to ensure that drivers can get through this pandemic.

Unite Regional Officer @AlanMcC4rthy on BBC Radio Wales earlier this morning speaking about the impact that the pandemic has had on our members working in the taxi trade & why we're calling on Welsh Government to step up & provide a sector specific support package for drivers.

Drivers feel neglected by @WelshGovernment and @cardiffcouncil it’s about time they listened to the concerns drivers have and act fast before its too late


Taxi Drivers of Cardiff reposted

We kindly ask you to support taxi drivers who are in a vulnerable position, if they don't receive the right help and don't die from Covid19 there a high chance their mental could kill them. 2/2 @vaughangething @JulieMorganLAB @JennyRathbone @MarkDrakeford voice.wales/the-alarming-r…
