We track tennis ball sized objects in deep space – you can certainly figure out who is collecting from the local kebab shop!” The Conservative Party have been vocal critics of Labour’s Employments Rights Bill, which they say will push up costs for businesses and made it harder to hire staff. ” It’s a compliance issue and your ‘customer promise’ must be a clean supply chain which contains no illegal or criminal people visiting your customers homes,” Griffith said.City AM has contacted Uber UK for comment. </div>
