This case was brought up by Uber drivers, not the UK government. If Uber is to cease its UK operations, then it will ultimately be because drivers went to court, so it should give others a pause when considering doing the same.
The bottom line that the UK drivers wanted to have a cake and eat it, bit the hand that feeds them, etc. If Uber lets this slide, it creates a bad precedent for them.
