Tube users brace for chaos as strikes set to escalate this week
The Guardian
|September 08, 2025
Tube users in London have been urged to check before travelling this week as strikes by staff escalate, closing the underground entirely for four days from today.
The RMT union has batted back pleas to call off the industrial action, involving about 10,000 workers, as it attempts to secure a shorter working week as part of pay negotiations.
The series of strikes means almost no tube trains will be running until Friday, with other transport in the capital likely to be affected by crowding and congestion.
London's other rail services - the Elizabeth line, London Overground and national rail services - will continue to run, as will buses. Some central rail stations with tube interchanges will be closed.

Woman in Cabin 10 A fearless Keira Knightley on a yacht? No, being a hack isn't really like that
In The Woman in Cabin 10, Netflix's new potboiler, Keira Knightley plays a fearless justice warrior, a lone voice of dogged truth in a maelstrom of corruption, and this is not her first foray into such terrain: six years ago she played the whistleblower Katharine Gun in Official Secrets, the 2019 film about some pretty dicey US and UK behaviour before the Iraq war.
