My husband phoned Addison Lee when I got to the stage of labour where I needed to go to the hospital. He pre-warned them of what was happening and they arrived promptly.


The driver was pretty good about it all and tried his best to ignore the yelps coming from the back seat. I don't remember too much about it all but I think my husband was impressed by their service. I think I may have scared the living daylights out of the poor driver though. He definitely got a tip.


We also have had good (but non labour) experience with Dulwich Cars. Friendly, reliable and prompt.

Hi Bambi70


Not sure which hospital you plan to go to, but when I gave birth at Tommys, they gave out a taxi number of a firm willing to take labouring mothers. I was given this when I did an ante-natal tour of the unit. Perhaps if you call your hospital they may have a similar arrangement? Best of luck for the birth - I in fact nearly gave birth in the cab to the hospital!

    • I have sympathy with any voter, anyone, who having witnessed the last 14 years and then Labour in the last year and wonders just how can things be this bad  unless a) they voted for brexit b) voted Tory after 2010 c) is thinking of voting reform  because anyone who thinks reform won’t make things a thousand times worse after voting for the previous?  It is they who are the problem.  They are the reason the country is in the doldrums with an embarrassingly-timid Labour government 
    • In what way? Maybe it just felt more intelligent and considered coming directly after Question Time, which was a barely watchable bun fight.
    • Yes, all this. Totally Sephiroth. The electorate wants to see transformation overnight. That's not possible. But what is possible is leading with the right comms strategy, which isn't cutting through. As I've said before, messaging matters more now than policy, that's the only way to bring the electorate with you. And I worry that that's how Reform's going to get into power.  And the media LOVES Reform. 
    • “There was an excellent discussion on Newscast last night between the BBC Political Editor, the director of the IFS and the director of More In Common - all highly intelligent people with no party political agenda ” I would call this “generous”   Labour should never have made that tax promise because, as with - duh - Brexit, it’s pretending the real world doesn’t exist now. I blame Labour in no small part for this delusion. But the electorate need to cop on as well.  They think they can have everything they want without responsibilities, costs or attachments. The media encourage this  Labour do need to raise taxes. The country needs it.  Now, exactly how it’s done remains to be seen. But if people are just going to go around going “la la laffer curve. Liars! String em up! Vote someone else” then they just aren’t serious people reckoning with the problem yes Labour are more than a year into their term, but after 14 years of what the Tories  did? Whoever takes over, has a major problem
