2000-3000 Manchester, UK students protesting for workers rights break from unions who they say are not doing enough according to SkyNews report:

The arrests happened when students broke away from a larger joint rally calling for a Future That Works. According to one blog, StrongerUnions, the event, was sponsored by the Trade Unions Congress – in partnership with the National Union of Students and University and College Union to “highlight the impact of the  coalition government’s programme of cuts and ‘reforms’  on young workers, students and young people in general.”
