MPs despair over state of tube

The government's public-private partnership has failed to improve London Underground sufficiently to justify the huge expenditure, according to MPs.

The Commons transport committee says there has not been enough incentive for Tubelines and Metronet, the infrastructure consortiums, to improve the efficiency of the Tube.

The MPs are "not confident" the companies would meet more demanding performance targets.
