Rail union RMT has come out in support of the Aslef union strike on Southern Rail.

The RMT told its own driver members not to book in for any shifts on Tuesday 1, Wednesday 2 and Friday 4 August - the same days as Aslef announced it would be striking.

The strike is part of the on-going dispute in defence of the role of the guard.
