London Underground Workers to Strike Over Pay Dispute

Transport for London warns of severe disruption from January 7 to 12 as workers protest 'unacceptable' 5% pay offer.

London Underground workers, members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union (RMT), are set to strike for a week starting on January 7 in protest at a 5% pay offer.
Transport for London (TfL) warns of little to no service between the evening of Sunday January 7 and the morning of Friday January 12.
The strike is in response to what the RMT calls an 'unacceptable' pay offer and TfL's refusal to restore staff travel facilities and create a two-tier workforce.
TfL has created a bonus pot of £13m for senior managers, while the commissioner took an 11% pay rise in 2023 taking his salary up to £395,000.
Other London transportation services such as the London Overground, Elizabeth line, DLR, tram, bus and National Rail services are not expected to be affected by the strike.
