(Photograph) - NUS president Jim Murphy at Battersea Park, London, for this week's demonstration against the replacement of student grants by loans.
NUS stewards traded hundreds of these red placards in exchange for those issued by the Socialist Workers' Party saying: "30 per cent grant cut no way: make the Tories pay." The police said that about 6,000 students were on the march: the NUS claimed a total nearer 25,000.
