Tube strikes cause rush-hour chaos in London

Telegraph, 15 Mar 2023
Tube strikes wrought havoc for thousands of commuters across the capital on Wednesday with unions threatening a further round of further walkouts.

London Underground drivers joined teachers, civil servants, junior doctors and BBC journalists in what threatens to be the biggest walkout since the current wave of industrial action started last year.

Hundreds of picket lines have been staged up and down the country amid continuing anger over issues including pay, jobs, pensions and conditions.

Despite talks being held between unions and the Westminster Government, the public sector strikes remain deadlocked.

No trains are running on any London Underground lines due to a strike by drivers in Aslef and the Rail, Maritime and Transport union (RMT), according to Transport for London's website.
