London tube strikes to go ahead on Tuesday and Thursday, RMT says

Two 24-hour stoppages by drivers to take place next week as part of action over proposals for four-day week

Strikes by drivers on London Underground next week will go ahead, the RMT union has announced, paving the way for more days of transport disruption.

Two 24-hour stoppages are to take place, from 00.01 to 23.59 on Tuesday 2 June and Thursday 4 June, because of differences over a planned four-day week.
