London Underground staff to stage two more walkouts

London Underground workers are to stage a 16-hour strike from 5 February and a 15-hour walkout two days later. The action has been called after lengthy talks with London Underground bosses, under the chairmanship of conciliation service ACAS, failed to break the deadlock. Members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport union (RMT) and Transport Salaried Staffs' Association (TSSA) staged a 24-hour strike earlier this month which crippled Tube services.
