On December 7, we reported in a statement that we were going to turn the sector upside down due to the arrival of Uber for the third time in Barcelona.
Creating an internal debate seems totally necessary to us to be able to face the coming months, which will not be easy at all, as we already reported in the Hornet’s Nest last Friday.
The position of ELITE BARCELONA it remains the same as always and in the same way we continue to act in the same assembly way.
We want to remind all colleagues that since ELITE BARCELONA We have always sat down with everyone and then we have taken to the sector any proposal or initiative where they vote and then defend the result tooth and nail.
We assumed the responsibility for more than four years to carry out the representation of the sector and that entails many things and some of them, as in this case, a large part of the sector does not like but that does not exempt us from making decisions that we believe are entirely consistent and are part of our mission.
The entrance of Uber in Barcelona is imminent and that they have a free track like Freenow will depend on the sector and it will be the sector that decides how we face this new scenario.
From the board of directors of ÉLITE BARCELONA we are not going to decide anything because we consider that we do not have the moral authority to make any decision that directly affects your day-to-day life and that is why since our birth we have always placed the most relevant decisions in the hands of the sector the course that we have to defend in all areas.
In the next few weeks you will be you who are going to decide if Barcelona should be an oil raft with a free track for Uber (as it has been for Freenow) or hell.
ELITE BARCELONA has an impeccable track record in the fight against extractive platforms and in that sense absolutely nothing has changed despite the fact that some continue to make an effort to demonstrate the opposite, mainly from outside and without any objective criteria..
For our part, we continue working to defend yellow and black and we take full responsibility for our actions without palliative. Time will put everything in its place as it always has.
