About 15,000 police officers are expected to gather in London for a mass march and rally in a protest over pay.
Officers are angry that a 2.5% pay rise has been backdated to only 1 December for officers in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.
Police say it is effectively a 1.9% increase, unlike Scotland where the rise has been backdated to 1 September.
The Home Office said it had a responsibility to make sure pay rises were in line with government policy.
In Scotland, the Scottish government agreed to backdate the increase fully to 1 September, as recommended by the independent Police Arbitration Tribunal.
