No driverless Tubes, London mayor says

Work to introduce driverless trains on the London Underground network "shouldn’t be progressed any further", the mayor of London has said.

In a response to a written question from Reform UK's London Assembly member Alex Wilson, Sadiq Khan said it would cost billions of pounds on each line.

In 2020, then prime minister Boris Johnson said driverless trains should be a condition of any future funding for Transport for London.

The RMT union has been approached for comment but in 2014 the Aslef drivers' union vowed to "go to war" over plans to introduce them.
