Here's the BBC version as the one above does not show you the content if you use adblockers.

Southern Railway workers in England are to stage 14 days of strike action in five blocks in the long-running dispute over the role of conductors on trains.

The RMT union said the latest strikes would begin next month.

It said it had no alternative but to take action over what it called Southern's "blatant disregard for the safety and security of passengers and staff alike."

Five sets of strike dates have been announced by the RMT.

00.01 BST Tuesday 11 October to 23.59 BST Thursday 13 October
00.01 BST Tuesday 18 October to 23.59 BST Thursday 20 October
00.01 BST Thursday 3 November to 23.59 BST Saturday 5 November
00.01 BST Tuesday 22 November to 23.59 BST Wednesday 23 November
00.01 BST Tuesday 6 December to 23.59 BST Thursday 8 December.
