  • Campaigners locked out of the closed Carnegie Library play chess outside, in Herne Hill, south London on 7th May 2016. For ten days, members of the community in the south London borough occupied their important resource for learning and social hub for the weekend. But after a long campaign by locals, Lambeth have gone ahead and closed the library's doors because they say, cuts to their budget mean millions must be saved. A gym is planned to replace the working library and while some of the 20,000 books on shelves will remain, no librarians will be present to administer it. London borough’s budget cuts mean four of its 10 libraries will either close, move or be run by volunteers.

  • Young teenage students run from police against government education cuts in Regent Street. Holding a variety of placards that denounce the coalition government's policy of charging extra higher-education tuition fees, the atmosphere is excited and happy.

London borough’s budget cuts mean four of its 10 libraries will either close, move or be run by volunteers.
