THE App Drivers and Couriers Union (ADCU) called for drivers and the public to stop using Uber today amid a 24-hour strike against the ride-sharing company.

The union cited Uber’s intensified “brutal exploitation of workers” and “political graft” as reasons for the strike following the publication of the Uber Files.

The walkout, which ended at midnight, included a demonstration against the company outside its head office in Aldgate, London, the ADCU said.
