According to a tweet by Sky News, Uber has submitted a petition to appeal directly to the Supreme Court - 'leapfrogging' the Court of Appeal - in an attempt to overturn the EAT's decision upholding that its drivers are 'workers'.
It is not yet known whether they have applied (or will apply) to have the case heard at the same time as the Pimlico Plumbers appeal on 'worker' status, due to be heard early next year.
