We have been sent some photos of some hardy souls protesting at Katrina Shanks office in Johnsonville about the night class cuts. It is not the biggest protest in the world, but I am told John Key was there and they wanted to remind him that the fight against the cuts goes on. And for a weeknight at 6pm, in Johnsonville, I say good on them. Protests around the country have seen hundreds of people show up to public meetings and rallies.

Labour has opposed the cuts since they were announced. Note there is a national day of action against the cuts this Saturday. The details of events right around the country are here.
