Some hoped the strikes would be suspended following news last week that strikes across the national rail were called off the day before they were set to take place.
However, RMT confirmed the tube strikes would still go ahead as General Secretary Mick Lynch has explained further reasons for the strikes, saying: "The dishonesty of Network Rail bosses has reached a new low in this national rail dispute."
