London braces for second day of Tube strike disruption
London Underground drivers represented by the RMT union are proceeding with a second day of strike action following a dispute over proposed four-day work week changes. While TfL reports that 60% of drivers worked during the first day of the strike, significant service disruptions are expected across multiple Tube lines.

The strike highlights ongoing labor tensions in public transport and the challenges of modernizing work schedules in major metropolitan infrastructure.
