London Underground workers vote for more strike action

More than 90% of RMT members who voted back further stoppages in dispute over pensions and job cuts

London Underground staff in the RMT union have voted to continue with strikes in a dispute over pensions and job cuts, potentially adding to disruption in a summer of industrial action on the transport network.

More than 90% of the union's members on the tube who voted, on a 53% turnout, backed further walkouts, as the RMT leadership continued to talk with Network Rail and train operating companies to resolve the national rail standoff.
