Hundreds of Uber drivers have staged another protest in Birmingham against pay and conditions.

People who gathered outside the company's premises in Aston said their pay had fallen and the firm was refusing to talk to them.

Last month, parts of the city centre were brought to a standstill during a demonstration.

The BBC has approached the firm for a response.

Speaking last month, it said all drivers were guaranteed holiday pay, access to a pension plan, free sickness protection and earned at least the National Living Wage, although "the vast majority earn more".

A spokesperson added it had an agreement with the GMB to ensure union representation.
