Tube drivers walk out from midday today

Londoners are bracing for transport chaos from midday today as the RMT launches a 24-hour Tube strike.

Transport for London warns the Piccadilly and Circle lines will run no service, with parts of the Central and Metropolitan lines also suspended until Friday lunchtime.
