London was brought to a standstill (almost literally) when almost 20,000 Tube workers went on strike.

They will not be working for the next 24 hours, as they protest plans for the new all-night Tube service.

London Underground bosses attempted to settle the dispute at a meeting yesterday with union officials, but to no avail.

The unions rejected LU’s offer, which included a 2% rise this year and £2,000 for drivers on the weekend night Tube service.

The typical salary for a Tube driver is £50,000 a year.

Explaining their decision to reject the terms, Rail, Maritime and Transport (RMT) union’s general secretary Mick Cash said: "Despite strenuous efforts by union negotiators to press London Underground to address the issues of fairness, safety, work/life balance and equality at the heart of this dispute, they have come up with nothing in the talks this afternoon."

Because of this, members of the RMT union, Transport Salaried Staffs Association (TSSA) and Unite started their 24-hour strike at 18:30 on Wednesday 8th July.

It well end at 6.30pm on Thursday evening, although delays are expected to continue into Friday morning.

But 24 hours is a LONG time in the world of commuting - particularly if you’re travelling in conditions like these…

Yikes.
