More travel misery is on the horizon as Tube maintenance workers back more strike action.

London Underground Fleet members voted to strike with a majority of 67 per cent, while 88 per cent voted to endorse action short of a strike.

There was a 43 per cent turn out.

The RMT executive is now considering the result.

RMT representatives made a list of grievances which included not consulting or negotiating with the Union over firing staff, breaching an agreement on the Night Tube and failing to hire adequate staff for it.

The reps also allege they have been "actively attacked" for carrying out their trade union duties.

RMT general secretary Mick Cash said the list of issues was "not exhaustive".

He said: "This level of flagrant abuse and ignorance of long-standing policies and procedures is unacceptable and the anger among RMT Fleet grades members is clear following this overwhelming mandate for strike action and action short of a strike."

"The ballot result will now be considered by RMT’s executive and it is down to London Underground to start taking this list of grievances seriously, to stop trying to impose fundamental changes to agreed policies and working conditions and to halt the bullying and harassment of our reps.

"RMT remains available for serious talks."

A TfL spokesperson said: "We urge the RMT leadership to work with us constructively on the issues it has raised rather than threaten unnecessary industrial action."

This comes as commuters are bracing for a separate Tube strike when drivers will stage a 24 hour walkout on the evening of Tuesday, February 21 from 9pm.

The strike will shut down the Waterloo & City Line, while the Central line will have a reduced service and no service east of Leytonstone.

Southern Rail drivers will also be striking on for 24 hours on Wednesday 22, offering a reduced service of 75 per cent.
