Two 24-hour strikes by London Underground drivers will go ahead on Tuesday and Thursday, as talks aimed at averting the action have broken down.

Members of the Rail, Maritime and Transport (RMT) union are to walk out in a dispute over plans by Transport for London (TfL) to introduce a voluntary four-day working week.

The two sides met for last-ditch talks on Monday, but the RMT union said TfL "failed to failed to provide assurances" over concerns about working hours and fatigue.

TfL previously said it aimed to run at least half of Tube services, but the Circle and Piccadilly lines will shut down and parts of the Metropolitan line and Central line will be suspended.

The BMA cites a 26% real-terms pay cut over 17 years, while the Health Secretary argues consultants are highly paid and strikes are unjustified.
