Tube staff are to go ahead with a walkout over an internal dispute planned for the Platinum Jubilee bank holiday weekend.
The Rail, Maritime and Transport union (RMT) has threatened the walkout due to members suffering from years of "intimidation, bullying and unjustified sackings of colleagues by a manager who has created a toxic atmosphere in the workplace".
Country-wide celebrations are set to take place over the weekend, starting on Thursday June 2 for the Spring bank holiday. The Platinum Jubilee bank holiday is then scheduled for Friday June 3.
The Queen is celebrating 70 years on the throne this year, having passed the incredible milestone in February. It is the first major Jubilee celebration Her Majesty will celebrate without Prince Philip after he died in April 2021.
Transport for London (TfL) ensured the stations affected will still remain open, but urged RMT to cancel the strikes.
It said: "This industrial action is designed to target a weekend of important celebrations and we're urging the RMT to call off this action and continue talks instead."
So which tube stations could be affected?
Where is the Platinum Jubliee tube strike?
The Platinum Jubilee tube strike will take place at Euston and Green Park stations, if it goes ahead.
Both are important stations on the tube and see thousands of passengers a day trundle through their exits.
Euston is connected to one of the country's major rail stations and serves the Victoria, Northern and Overground lines.
Green Park is close to major stations on the Jubilee line such as Waterloo and Westminster, and the Piccadilly and Victoria lines also run through the station.
The station is adjacent to Buckingham Palace, where plenty of royal enthusiasts could be flocking over the landmark weekend and it is useful for tourists due to being situated near Piccadilly and Mayfair.
When is the Platinum Jubilee tube strike?
The Platinum Jubilee tube strike at Euston and Green Park stations is currently scheduled for June 3.
RMT general secretary Mick Lynch said the "strike on June 3 will cause significant disruption to people wishing to celebrate the Queen's Jubilee".
However, the union boss stated the strike will not happen if tube bosses "deal appropriately with" the manager RMT is referring to.
Lynch added: "The union has tried in vain to reason with management, but they now will not let local representatives be part of a review into dismissals at the stations, instigated by the manager in question.
"However, if tube bosses do the right thing, and deal appropriately with the manager in question, we can find a just resolution to this dispute."
A spokesperson for Prime Minister Boris Johnson told the BBC : "I don't think we want to see any disruption to London's transport system at such a moment when people are trying to come together to honour this Jubilee year."
