Black cab protest at Heathrow

Chemical travellers to London, at least those who still have a travel budget to play with, will be interested to hear that they will soon be able to pick up a pre-booked cab from a rank at Heathrow without having to pay for a top dollar black taxi. However in the meantime, they are more likely to find themselves in the middle of an airport blockade, as cabbies protest at plans to take away their most lucrative route in the country.
