Does anyone know what the latest strike us about? Is it another
political one, or do they have a legitimate case? If it's about the
closed ticket offices, surely it's a bit late for that?

It seems to be less well supported than expected, as LU is running
many more services than predicted.


Oh

on TV this morning they showed locked up stations

As a disinterested party I investigated no further


Yes, many stations are closed, but not nearly as many as predicted.
Services are therefore running on more of the network than expected. For
example, the whole Met, District and Jubilee lines are running, though I
suppose some inner London stations are being non-stopped. I think only the
Circle, Victoria and W&C are completely closed.

See

Which shows Good Service on the DLR, District & Metropolitan, full but
infrequent Circle, Hammersmith & City services and limited services
elsewhere, e.g. the Bakerloo only Marylebone to Harrow & Wealdstone Central
all except White City to Liverpool St, Northern Old St to Morden plus
northern extremities only, Piccadilly open air sections & Heathrow only,
Jubilee "Special service every 5 minutes with various stations closed", etc.

Yes, it's been steadily improving during the day, presumably as more staff
turned up than expected.
