Just received word from the MET about a protest tomorrow. Should be all over and done with by commute time but just incase:

On Wednesday 14 March 2012 from 2.00 p.m. there will be a student march from Malet Street, WC1 to Victoria Street, SW1 arriving outside the premises of the Dept. for Business, Innovations and Skills (B.I.S.) at about 4.00 p.m.

There is an estimate that the size of the march will be between 3,000 and 4,000 likely participants. Protestors will meet up at the University of London Union at 1.30 p.m. and move off with a police escort at 2.00p.m. The route follows:

Malet Street
Russell Square

The NUS have called a national walkout for their 'come clean' campaign today: http://www.nus.org.uk/en/campaigns/fund ... t-funding/

So the people behind http://anticuts.com have decided to use the opportunity to walk around London protesting about some guy called David Willetts.
