The postal workers' union has announced plans to escalate strike action across London in a worsening dispute over jobs, pay and services.

Members of the Communication Workers Union (CWU) took industrial action on Saturday and are due to walk out again on Tuesday and Wednesday, disrupting deliveries to homes and offices.

The union announced that strikes will now be held in different parts of the capital for the rest of the week, including the huge mail centre at Mount Pleasant, Heathrow Airport, north London, parts of south east and south west London and the West End.
