Tube workers in London will strike next month in a dispute over pay, the train drivers’ union ASLEF has announced.

London Underground drivers, instructors, managers, and engineers who are Aslef members will strike across four days in November.

Train drivers, instructors, and managers will strike on 7 and 12 November, while engineers will strike on 1 and 2 November.

Managers will not work any overtime on 3 and 16 November, and engineering drivers will be on an overtime ban on 1 and 8 November.

Finn Brennan, Aslef’s London Underground organiser, said: “We don’t want to go on strike – we don’t want to make travelling in and around the capital more difficult for passengers and we don’t want to lose a day’s pay – but we have been forced into this position because London Underground management won’t sit down properly and negotiate with us.”

He said Transport for London’s (TfL) pay offer of 3.8% plus a variable lump sum “means Underground drivers will stay on a lower salary than driver on other TfL services while working longer hours”.

Tube drivers will also receive a lower pay rise than other Underground workers, he added.
