London, April 18 (RHC)-- More than 150,000 people took to the streets of the British capital over the weekend to voice their anger at the harsh austerity measures by the conservative government.

The rally, which was organized by an activist group called the People's Assembly, saw demonstrators from across the UK on the streets of London protesting against cuts to health, social housing, jobs and education.

Protest organizers accuse the government of being favorable to the privileged, saying the austerity drive has pushed ordinary Britons further into poverty.

The protesters also called for Prime Minister David Cameron's resignation over a recent offshore scandal –known as The Panama Papers. Cameron has been under pressure by the media and the opposition to disclose details of the financial relations between his father, Ian Cameron, and the world's fourth biggest offshore law firm, Mossack Fonseca, which specializes in reducing the tax burdens for the wealthy.
