Tube strikes cause major disruption across London

Tube strikes cause major disruption across London

London Tube strikes are causing major travel disruption across the capital this week, making daily journeys much harder for commuters. Drivers from the RMT union walked out after midnight on Tuesday and will strike again on Thursday, as last-ditch talks failed. The Piccadilly and Circle lines won't be running at all, and many other lines will have a reduced service.
