Its time for click. This week the perils of the gig economy. Checking for allergens. And. Fake birds. Its kind of hard to remember a time when we didnt have taxi hailing apps. And when i say taxi hailing apps, even though there are many more players out there, it is uber that comes to mind first. At its conception a decade ago, uber was really disruptive. I mean, the idea that you could have a taxi to you within minutes, it would know exactly where you were, you could see where it was and you didnt even have to have any money on you.

Good monday morning, welcome to squawk alley, im Carl Quintanilla with Morgan Brennan and jon fortt. We will start with uber. They lose their license to operate in london. Regulators citing a pattern of failures from uber that place passenger safety and security at risk cnbc contributor kara swisher joins us to talk about this. How are you doing. Not too bad we will see how the appeals process goes, the big question is whether other cities follow suit. Its a troublesome thing. Uber has been struggling for a long time in these cities and actually the first thing that the new ceo who came in after Travis Kalanick did was go to londer to assuage the critics there. It was one of his First International trips and it was very soon into his becoming ceo. So its really problematic if they dont get these cities straight, especially london which i think is its biggest revenue generator after the United States. The thing is it comes after a couple of really big stumbles including daras unfortunat
