Thousands of demonstrators marched through London today ahead of the anniversary of Donald Trump's inauguration as President.
The now-annual march first took place on January 21, 2017, with hundreds of thousands of women gathering across the world, including in London and in Washington DC.
This year's protest had the theme 'bread and roses', in honour of American Rose Schneiderman who fronted a rally of the same name in 1912.
Bread and roses originated from a speech by Ms Schneiderman, in which she said 'the worker must have bread, but she must have roses, too' - meaning workers should be entitled to a life where they are doing more than just surviving.
Protesters gathered in Portland Place, Marylebone, at 12pm, as part of a rally against austerity in the UK, before making their way towards Trafalgar Square.
Thousands of demonstrators held signs bearing slogans including 'austerity is misogyny', 'women's rights are human rights' and 'Brexit wrecks it'.
Writing about the event on the Women's March website, organisers said: '[Austerity] is the common denominator in the rise of economic oppression, violence against women, gender pay gap, racism, fascism, institutional sexual harassment, hostile environment and Brexit.
'Mostly impacting marginalised groups of people in the United Kingdom who are the many not the few.
'With the imminence of Brexit, we want austerity to end and are demanding specific assurances from the UK government.
'It is time to eliminate the dividing line between the "Haves" and "Have Nots". Equality demands that we all get to thrive and not just survive. We demand Prosperity not Austerity.'
