cuts have clashed with police in London and Manchester.
The BBC reports thousands attended a joint rally in Manchester organised by
students and trade unions.
Six people were arrested in disturbances when a group broke away from the
main body of protesters leading to running skirmishes with police.

In central London meanwhile thousands of students staged a noisy protest
march which ended in a rally in Westminster with some of the protesters
leaving to join hundreds of demonstrators outside the Egyptian embassy.
One student's placard drew an analogy between events in Egypt and Tunisia
and that in Britain.
"Ben Ali, Mubarak ... Cameron, you are next," it read.
Universities and Science Minister David Willetts said: "The government
respects the right of all citizens to engage in lawful and peaceful protest.
"Our student and university finance reforms are fairer than the present
system and affordable for the nation.
"No student will be asked to pay upfront costs, there will be more financial
support for poorer students and those who go on to earn the highest incomes
will make the largest contributions after they have graduated." | g*q
