The sixth Tube strike of the year had all the accoutrements. Each of the 11 Underground lines either part or fully suspended, the Overground messed up, buses turning weary commuters away, all while the Elizabeth line – the jewel in the crown that can do no wrong – is running a full service for anyone who only needs to travel in a straight line.
Today’s strike by RMT members relates to the continued dispute over pensions and jobs cuts despite, as our Transport Editor Ross Lydall reports, some 11th-hour assurances from the Mayor.
