Tube drivers could be set for a new strike for three further days in the long-running row over the Night Tube.

The train drivers' union Aslef is reportedly proposing 24-hour strikes on January 27 and February 15 and 17.

The union's leadership is meeting today (January 11) to consider whether to push ahead with the strikes.

The Night Tube, which was due to begin in September last year, will see 24-hour services on five lines including the Central and Victoria lines on Fridays and Saturdays.

Aslef’s Finn Brennan said the London Underground (LU) had refused all approaches for talks since their last meeting on November 10.

He said: "We genuinely regret the inconvenience that will be caused but the behaviour of London Underground's senior management team have left us with no other choice.

"We want to see an all-night service introduced and we are not opposed to the recruitment of part-time staff but we will not accept a zero-hours culture being introduced and working conditions undermined."

The Rail, Maritime and Transport (RMT) union is also reportedly considering the action.

Mayor of London Boris Johnson said: "They were offered excellent terms and conditions for their members to deliver the Night Tube.

"They turned those down - without ever properly consulting their membership."

He added: "London will get the 24-hour night service it needs, with or without the help of Aslef."

LU has offered a four-year pay deal to its workers as part of the Night Tube changes and said it will hire part-time drivers to staff an all-night service at weekends.

It had recently advertised for 200 part-time drivers and Mr Johnson said it had received more than 6,400 applications.

Steve Griffiths, chief operating officer for LU, said Aslef was trying everything to stop the Night Tube.

He said: "Our four-year pay offer is extremely fair.

"As a result of hiring new drivers - who will be on permanent, part-time contracts with the same rates of pay and the same benefits as existing drivers - we've made absolute guarantees that no current driver will have to work the Night Tube unless they want to.

"This total protection of work-life balance is precisely what Aslef leaders asked for, so it is astonishing that they are now once again threatening strike action.

"The truth is that they are making excessive demands for more money, fewer hours and a four-day week and expect fare and tax payers to pick up the bill."

Unions took industrial action over the Night Tube last summer, which shut down the entire network, having called for increased pay and a limit on how many all-night shifts their members would be asked to do.

LU claims the Night Tube is needed to deal with huge demand from passengers, especially at weekends, and would add £6.4bn to the London economy by 2030.
