More strikes set in Tube staffing dispute

RMT members on London Underground are due to strike from 1800 on February 5 to 0959 on February 6, and from 1000 on February 7 until 0059 on February 8, in a dispute over station staffing levels.

The union claims that staffing cuts are leaving station control rooms unstaffed, and that it threatens the security of passengers.

Further strike dates in March are due to be announced shortly.
