Ben, 21, from Sussex University told us at the protest: "I'm really pleased with how today went. I think most of us are. Obviously some peopel wanted there to be trouble so the police would react and there would be more of a story for the media.

"But I think they're in the minority. We're educated young people. We know the answer isn't violence.

"Whether today will make the government sit up and listen I don;t know. I guess we will have to wait and see."

Police have packed up their riot gear at London Wall and most of them have gone now too, the BBC reports.

Our reporter heard a disappointed man, who came looking for a fight, say: 'I thought today would be a big one. Ain't the numbers you need though. This is shit".

Lucy Sherriff, our education reporter, has wondered passed a street party on Coleman Street, where someone has brought along huge speakers. They will be moving the speakers to St Paul's in 15 minutes, where they will carry on the celebrations.

A policeman said that there were only 100 protesters left around London Wall, if that. The horses have left, but a few riot vans remain.

Our reporter Michael Rundle is at the Concert:

"Protesters are gathering at a Billy Bragg sing-a-long. Pete Seeger, the American folk singer, is swaying by the fence, smoking a pipe, backed by a peace flag in the sunset. Workers are stopping by to watch".

"The crowd is also waiting for Tom Morello of Rage Against The Machine to come on stage".

'Step forward and make that victory happen' says Billy Bragg to the crowd, Michael Rundle reports from St Paul's.

One banker, trying to get home, said his journey had been "severely disrupted" by the protests. "I had the afternoon off- what a waste of a day. I've spent the whole time walking around trying to find the nearest tube which hasn't been closed due to the protests."

Another man, who works as a financial advisor in the City said he had "no sympathy for either bankers or students."

"Its the middle classes kicking up the fuss. The ones protesting are the ones who can afford to take the time off. Those who are really poor can't just protest when they feel like it. I was the first in my family to go to university. I'm working class. Education is the only way for the lower classes to get out- its a fact. If you want to get a good job, it does cost you. I think those protesting should put their money where their mouth is."

LBC radio report from the scene that protesters seem to think they are being kettled, while the police are attempting to announce that they can exit at Moorgate. Confused protesters tweeted that were being kettled but they are free to leave.

The protest has reached the end of the route at London Wall, with a calm atmosphere pervading - though the crowd look unlikely to disperse immediately.

Michael Rundle, our reporter, has spotted a litter picker: "he is already cleaning up at Trafalgar Square".

A protester called Ed told our reporter Michael Rundle as he was arrested that he had no regrets, and that he'd be back to the protest as soon as he was out on the street. He referred to the police as "slaves to the system".

Other protesters at the Trafalgar Square cordon are shouting 'no democracy, no peace' and handing out copies of the newspaper - "one year on students march again".

One protester called Oscar has been at the Occupy London protest since it began. He explained that protesters were at Trafalgar Square because they needed more space:

"As long as it gets the message out to the right people then its worth it," he said, adding that the police response to demonstrators with tents did "exactly what we wanted it to".

"Well'l be back again and again and again.'

Police are forcibly removing tents and protesters in Trafalgar Square, as seen in this picture taken by our reporter Michael Rundle.

Police are moving in on the encampment of tents at Trafalgar Square, our reporter Michael Rundle says.

Officers broadcast a message that the protesters had deviated from the route and if they didn't move they'd be arrested

Around 30 police officers have started moving the tents by forces, and two protesters lying on the ground were picked up by officers. Forces have surrounded all entrances to the tents on the square.

Those in pop-up tents in Trafalgar Square are soon to be told to move on or be arrested, BBC News is reporting.

A number of arrests have been made so far for public order offences, the Met Police has tweeted.

The police has stopped the protest from moving forward temporarily by New Fetter Lane to calm the protest down.

Delay outside the Old Bailey while a stray protester is coaxed down:

2 riot vans have joined the march to stop the people walking too quickly by Somerset House. The protesters are back on the prescribed route now, according to our reporter Lucy Sherriff who is walking alongside the protest.

Huge cheers are heard from the crowd as police allow more protesters through to join the demonstation.

Some protesters have gone past Trafalgar Square towards the Houses Of Parliament, rather than towards London Wall as agreed with police. They are going to be "contained", according to one policeman. "They were warned about leaving the prescribed route", he told our reporter Lucy Sherriff.
