The RMT union called up to 4,000 station staff out on strike affecting stations across the city for 24 hours from one minute past midnight.

The strike is a dramatic escalation of the union’s dispute with Transport for London over feared threats to staff pensions and concerns that the loss of up to 600 station posts will lead to remaining staff having to work more unsociable hours or be left alone in stations at night.

Downing Street condemned the “deeply disappointing” strike action.
