In its ruling, the CJEU said that a service whose purpose was to connect, by means of a smartphone application and for remuneration, non-professional drivers using their own vehicle with persons who wish to make urban journeys must be classified as a service in the field of transport in EU law. The verdict comes after Transport for London (TfL) deemed Uber unfit to run a taxi service and refused to renew its licence in September 2017. Trade union GMB welcome the verdict as a support for London’s position. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Read on: \u003Ca href=\"http:\u002F\u002Fwww.gmb.org.uk\u002Fnewsroom\u002Fnewsroom\u002Fecj-uber-ruling.html\">in English (1)\u003C\u002Fa> …   \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.politico.eu\u002Farticle\u002Fuber-ecj-ruling\u002F\">in English (2) …\u003C\u002Fa>   The ruling: \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fg8fip1kplyr33r3krz5b97d1-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2017\u002F12\u002FEuropean-Court-of-Justice-Uber-ruling-December-20-2017-POLITICO.pdf\">in English …\u003C\u002Fa>\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp class=\"CM3\">\u003Cspan class=\"discreet\">\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">For more information, please contact the editor Jan Cremers or Nuria Ramos Martin, Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Labour Studies (AIAS) \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:cbn-aias@uva.nl\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">cbn-aias@uva.nl\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\"> or the communications officer at the ETUI, Willy De Backer \u003C\u002Fspan>\u003Ca href=\"mailto:wdebacker@etui.org\">\u003Cspan color=\"#0567d1\" size=\"2\">wdebacker@etui.org\u003C\u002Fspan>\u003C\u002Fa>\u003Cspan color=\"#666666\" size=\"2\">.
