Can Sadiq Khan stop London tube strikes from hitting Elizabeth Line?

As tube strikes stretch into a third day of disruption, the RMT trade union has now threatened to hit the Elizabeth Line with industrial action. From Sunday evening, tube drivers went on strike over the working hours of union members, who enjoy a salary of around £65,000, as RMT’s new boss Eddie Dempsey is demanding a 32-hour week. Transport for London (TfL) put a 3.4 per cent pay rise on the table, but it was rejected by the RMT union, and since then, talks have not only failed but have also come to a standstill. The action hit City workers on Monday as buses, national rail, the Elizabeth Line, and even the bike lanes were overcrowded, leading to delays and stress for people trying to get to and from work.
