Tube workers vote on strikes

As members of the Rail Maritime and Transport Union voted to strike, the union warned further action would be taken if the row is now resolved. Workers on the Piccadilly Line will walk out for 24 hours on 4 December, but didn't rule out a 48 hour strike at a later date.

RMT general secretary Bob Crow said:

Workers on a busy London Underground line are to strike in a row over agreements being "ripped up". Members of the Rail Maritime and Transport union on the Piccadilly Line will walk out for 24 hours from noon on December 4.
