Hundreds of people took to the streets in protest at proposals to close down several of Wirral's libraries, arts centres and sports centres.

Wirral Borough Council wants to close 13 libraries, three arts centres and three leisure facilities to reinvest £20m in multi-purpose complexes.

But local people have been angered by the proposals and say they will have to travel miles to access the new sites.

The next demo is going to be this Thursday, where we'll be lobbying the council. TBH, I can't see it making a tremendous ammount of difference to their decision, but we'll see.

400 posts to go at Nottingham Council, many more councils after that?
