London Underground strikes begin with travel chaos expected across the capital

• Large parts of the London Underground network are suspended or heavily disrupted due to an RMT strike.
• Lines such as Circle, Waterloo & City, District, Hammersmith & City, Northern, and Victoria are significantly affected, with some fully suspended.
• The industrial action, which began after midnight on Tuesday, will also take place on Thursday, causing further travel disruption.
• The strike stems from a dispute over a new four-day working week, which members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union oppose.
• Talks to resolve the dispute failed, leading to the walkout, though the drivers’ union Aslef has accepted the new arrangements.
