It was billed as the biggest day of industrial action for decades - but the Prime Minister's called today's strikes a 'damp squib'.

Up to two million workers ARE thought to have walked out over changes to their pensions - including thousands in North Somerset - where dozens of local schools and libraries have been closed.

Disruption to services has been much less than expected with airports,
hospitals and transport hubs all coping with the walk out.

Turn out has been lower than expected at demos across the country - with tens
rather than hundreds of thousands hitting the streets of cities across the UK

In London, scuffles broke out as Police formed a cordon on Haymarket in
the West End when protesters briefly got onto the roof of a building.

The government says it's irresponsible to strike while negotiations are
ongoing.
