London Tube workers, represented by the RMT union, have voted in favor of striking in a dispute over pay. The vote was 90.5% in favor of taking action after the union rejected a 5% pay offer. The strikes are set to occur on Monday, January 8 and Wednesday, January 10, potentially bringing the Tube to a standstill. The decision marks a significant blow for Sadiq Khan, as the 'ceasefire' between TfL and the union barons has broken down. The strikes are expected to cause chaos on the London Underground in January.
