London student demonstration sees arrests and scuffles

Police have made a number of arrests during clashes with campaigners as thousands protested against spending cuts, tuition fees and student debt.

One man and a woman were detained after charging the Conservative Party headquarters in central London.

The Free Education demonstration is opposed to tuition fees of up to £9,000 a year at universities in England.
