Anti-austerity activists will protest in central London later to voice their opposition to measures set out in the Queen's Speech.
After the state opening of Parliament, in which the new Tory government published its legislative programme, union leaders and politicians are expected to join a demonstration outside Downing Street.
The event is aimed at protesting against cuts to welfare spending, toughening of strike ballot laws and plans to abolish the Human Rights Act.
Sam Fairbairn, national secretary of the People's Assembly, which is organising the protest, said: "We've suffered austerity for too long. It created the longest fall in living standards since records began for the majority while the 1,000 richest doubled their wealth.
"With less than 25 per cent of the population's vote, this government has no mandate to continue austerity and we vow to create a movement so big it stops austerity in its tracks."
The group is also holding a demonstration in London on June 20, including a march from the Bank of England to Parliament.
Meanwhile, the National Campaign Against Fees and Cuts say students and others will join a march to Parliament against tuition fees, spending cuts and the privatisation of the NHS.
Callum Cant, a member of the group's national committee, said: "The only thing that can stop the Tories' plan to dismantle the welfare state is mass resistance."
In later news, we’ll hopefully be able to bring you details of no arrests and zero trouble from today’s protests.
