Brussels taxi drivers strike on December 12

The Federation of Belgian Taxi Drivers (FeBet) will protest tomorrow, December 12, starting at 07:00am at Rogier square. 

FeBet filed a strike notice following a public declaration by Pascal Smet, Brussels Minister for Mobility and Public Works. The association accuses him of being tolerant towards company Uber, who drivers carry passengers with permits for limousines. In the absence of a Taxi plan, FeBet is calling for amendments to the paid passenger transportation in order to clarify the conditions under which limousine permits can be used. FeBet also calls for more effective control for Uber drivers.
