TfL called the announcement 'extremely disappointing'.
Two full days of Tube strikes have been announced by the transport workers' trade union the RMT.
The dispute is over plans by Transport for London to cut up to 600 station posts to save money, as well as the concerns of workers about pay, pensions and working conditions.The walkouts are due to start at 00:01 GMT and run until 23:59 on both days.Fresh strikes to hit London's Night Tube "These are the very same transport staff praised as heroes for carrying London through Covid for nearly two years, often at serious personal risk, who now have no option but to strike to defend their livelihoods."
"The devastating impact of the pandemic on TfL finances has made a programme of change urgently necessary and we need the RMT to work with us, rather than disrupting London's recovery.
