Tube workers join drivers in London Underground strike on 15 March

Action by RMT and Aslef unions over pensions and staffing will hit service on day of budget

Tube workers in the RMT union will strike on 15 March, joining Aslef in a 24-hour stoppage that will bring the London Underground to a halt.

The strike, on the day of the budget, will be the first this year in London by the RMT, in a long-running dispute over pensions and reducing the number of staff.
