\nThousands of students angered by government plans to triple university fees are marching in London and other British cities in protests targeting the Liberal Democrat party, which shares power with conservatives in the coalition government.<\/p>\n

Students on Wednesday packed Whitehall, the street that runs from London’s Trafalgar Square past the prime minister’s residence, as a phalanx of riot police blocked protesters from reaching parliament.<\/p>\n

Students are venting anger at Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg, accusing both him and his party of reneging on promises during this year’s election campaign to oppose any fee hikes. A small group of students hanged an effigy of Mr. Clegg in north London late Tuesday.<\/p>\n
