Manchester was brought to a standstill for a short while this afternoon as striking teachers marched through the city.
Members from the National Education Union (NEU) began their march on Liverpool Road, walked along Deansgate, then Peter Street, before heading down Oxford Road for a rally at All Saints’ Park. Traffic and trams were held to allow the procession to pass at lunchtime.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Michelle Yeoh was already an actor star overseas by 1997 thanks to popular Hong Kong movies like “Police Story 3: Super Cop” and “Supercop 2,” but it wasn’t until the James Bond tentpole “Tomorrow Never Dies” opened that year that Yeoh had her Hollywood breakthrough.
