Anti-capitalist protesters have gathered in centers across the country this afternoon, galvanised by the Occupy Wall Street protestors.

Marches are taking place in the four main centres plus New Plymouth and Invercargill, kicking off a global day of protest. In Auckland they are planning to occupy Aotea Square and remain there for days, and possibly weeks.

Global Peace and Justice spokesman Mike Treen is optimistic of a reasonable turnout of people who want to create a space where people can debate social justice issues.

Mr Treen is hoping facilities put in place for Rugby World Cup fans such as portaloos will be extended to the occupiers.
