Default Strike On Central Line Announced

I glimpsed but was unable to read in today's Evening Standard that there will be a strike on the Central Line.

Does anyone know anything about this or when it will be?

Commuters using the Central Line could face "severe disruption" on the
London Underground (LU) tomorrow ahead of threatened strike action by train
drivers.

Transport for London (TfL) said Central Line services on the Tube will be
"severely affected" should the action go ahead, which was backed by members

Members of Aslef on London Underground's Central Line will walk out for 24
hours at midnight, in a strike which will also hit the Waterloo & City
Line.

Parts or all of both lines could be suspended and if trains do run, they
will be at a reduced frequency. Central Line trains are not expected to run
through central London.

Apparently the trained chimps at the front feel they're not being given
enough respect for doing their push-button-to-go job. *snort* Wish I could
get paid 50K for doing virtually **** all. Its beyond pathetic.
