An update on the
underground strike
Fresh talks will be held on Monday to break the deadlock
over the new all-night underground services in London that have started two
strikes in recently causing disruption in the capital. The conciliation service
Acas will hold talks with the unions that are likely to walk out again possibly
for 48 hours unless there is a deal. Workers are unhappy with shifts for the
all-night tubes due to start on the 12 September. Boris Johnson the London
mayor has admitted the all-night services faces delay because of the dispute
but has ruled out direct talks with unions. Boris indicated the night tube
start date could be postponed that may allow time for negotiations to avert
further strikes.
