Protests in New York City against Wall Street are expected to continue for a 19th day as Anti-capitalist protesters are joined by trade unions.

The BBC's Laura Trevelyan reports on how the protests are now spreading to other US cities. And William Cohan , author of Money and Power: How Goldman Sachs Came to Rule the World, explains why he is not a fan of these protests.
