Italy - Taxi strike in protest at 'liberalisation' - not taking fares in Rome, Turin or Naples

Vehicles were not taking fares in Rome, Turin or Naples either, in a protest against new measures proposed by Prime Minister Mario Monti. The government wants to liberalise the industry, creating more licences and more competition.
