Did taxis not exist in the past? I actually help my mate out who owns a pizza shop when he is stuck for a driver. All of his drivers are family/friends wanting a bit of extra cash. My white English mum is also a carer. So instead of saying buzz words that sound good and suit your narrative, my point still stands and is not wrong. We cannot sustain the numbers we have currently. There are many issues we have as a country so it isn't wrong to suggest we need to get our own shit together, before we then want to let the world in.
I hope these drivers are paying the right tax and all that, have the correct insurance etc.
You know, follow our laws and everything...
