Sheffield taxi drivers called a strike in protest against the taxi operator Uber today over pay and dismissals.

The newly-formed App Drivers and Couriers Union (ADCU) was staging a 24-hour Uber drivers strike and a demonstration at their office on Concourse Way, near the bus station.

The union was asking drivers to not log on to the app today and asking passengers to support them by not crossing its digital picket line to book the service.

The strike was intended to run from midnight to midnight.
