Public sector workers are marching through cities across the UK in protest over planned Government changes to pensions - but disruption to services has so far been less than expected.
Around 15,000 people are taking part in a demo in Manchester, according to Greater Manchester Police, while thousands also took to the streets in London.
More than 1,000 rallies and demonstrations in total are scheduled to take place across the UK.
Meanwhile, contingency plans at major airports, transport hubs and hospitals have swung into action, minimising the effect of the walkouts.
