Strikes on the London Underground have been called off following talks over pay between the Aslef union and Transport for London.

The now-cancelled action would have seen the capital brought to a halt on Thursday 7 and Tuesday 12.

Finn Brennan, Aslef’s full-time organiser on London Underground, said: "Following fresh talks, and an improved offer, Aslef has agreed to suspend our planned industrial action on London Underground. Details of the offer will be discussed with our reps at a meeting on Thursday. "We are pleased that this progress has been made and that strike action has been averted at this time."We are not able to reveal any further details until after that meeting with our reps on Thursday."
