Protests are due to be held in London and Manchester against rising student tuition fees and public spending cuts.

The National Union of Students and TUC are joining forces for a march and rally in Manchester.

In London, there is likely to be a heavy police presence as protesters march through Trafalgar Square and Whitehall before gathering at Millbank.

Officers will hand out leaflets telling demonstrators what actions will be taken if violence breaks out.
