Petition

Against Hillingdon Concil taxis, private hire vehicles, Heathrow Villages

Rejected 9 signatures

What the petition asks

This is an a unfair act against private Hire drivers who works hard to provide a better transport service in London Heathrow airport passengers
I am writing to express my deep concern and disappointment regarding the recent fines issued to private hire taxi drivers, including myself, while we were seated inside our vehicles. This action feels extremely unfair, especially considering the challenging nature of our work and the difficult conditions we face daily.
What makes this situation more frustrating is that the individuals issuing these fines are not official parking wardens but appear to be from a private environmental company.
