Thomas Kroker outraged by Munich's city politics: Minimum prices postponed indefinitely

Thomas Kroker is not only appalled, he is extremely disappointed - and that as the board member of Taxi München eG, as chairman of the Bavarian Taxi and Rental Car Association, and as president of the Taxi and Rental Car Association of Germany (TMV):

“The political U-turn in Munich regarding the introduction of fair minimum transportation fees for rental cars is a massive breach of trust by the mayor and the city council, if they indeed decide so, against the honest taxi and rental car industry in the Bavarian state capital. We are appalled that we are being so betrayed, deceived, and let down by city politics.

Issuing a pseudo-examination order in the backroom at the last minute, bypassing the industry, and thereby wanting to postpone a decision to never-never day, even though everything is prepared within the administration, is tantamount to an oath of revelation:

It is completely irresponsible that the city is caving in to Uber & Co, suspending the promised urgently needed protection of our industry from ruinous price dumping, and leaving the honest and decent taxi and rental car industry in Munich out to dry.

But we will not accept this: Today at 9:30 am the entire Munich taxi industry is demonstrating at Marienplatz in front of the town hall. Our trust in city politics is at rock bottom! The city council still has the chance to make the right decision. We are showing the town hall and Uber&Co the red card!”
