Londoners face severe travel disruption as a strike by workers on the city’s underground train network entered full force on Monday.

The capital’s Tube lines were mostly suspended due to the industrial action by engineering, station and train workers that is expected to cause chaos for commuters most of this week. Services on National Rail, the Elizabeth Line and the Overground were also affected as some routes run over London Underground tracks and through Tube stations. There were long queues for buses.
