London’s taxis are planning a 10,000-cab protest next month, as professional drivers across Europe demonstrate growing opposition to Uber Technologies Inc.’s app.

The drivers will meet at a yet-to-be-named London landmark in early June, said Steve McNamara, the Licensed Taxi Drivers’ Association’s general secretary. Uber’s drivers are allowed to carry passengers without following the same rules as other services, giving them an unfair advantage, he said.
