Bollox weddings are allowed a maximum of fifteen - there are more than 15 of these morons protesting and they are not doing it safely either! Loons the lot of them - now on national tv denting covid exists! If they have jobs hopefully they are fired!

He said we'd only find 7% of people if we tested at the airport. (Previously it was said 15%). That's because dune people haven't developed the disease at the time of entry to the UK. Other countries test a second time to improve that figure.

They also said they estimate 8% of people in the U.K. have antibodies. It kind of puts the mortality rate into perspective. If that’s true (and the governments own advisors said it), it’s not 40,000 deaths for 400,000 cases, it’s 40,000 deaths for over 5 MILLION cases.

I completely sympathise with these people protesting, millions are going to lose their jobs, more people are going to die from suicide and cancer than would of had there not been a lock down. 200,000 people can’t afford to pay their rent this month.

The fact you can meet people in a venue where dozens of other people are and where you have to spend money but not in their own home should be challenged by anyone with half a brain.

I’m completely in favour of non economically crippling restrictions like track and trace, mandatory mask wearing, temperature checks, shielding etc but the other restrictions have to go.

Any protests should be banned at this moment in time, you can’t cherry pick which ones you allow and which ones you don’t. Half the hypocrites on this board who want this stopped would be encouraging a protest if it was against the Tories. This is just going to add fuel to the fire, there’s civil unrest and riots coming.

In other words, you can’t protest against the Rule of 6 itself (and the logic behind it)

Any evidence to back that up? I've seen mask use everywhere, even walking in the street people have them on. Any time I've been to a supermarket I've only ever seen 1 or 2 without them on.
 
Just saw some of these cranks interviewed

in short :

protester : it’s fake
Reporter: what about the 40000 + people that have died
protester: people die every day
Reporter: what about the drs who have confirmed the deaths are from covid
Protester: who do you think is paying those drs to say that,

honestly you just can’t reason with stupid! Should get the water cannons out give these dead heads a bath at the same time as dispersing them.

All I'm trying to ascertain is why some protests are treated differently to others, hence why I also included the extinction rebellion protests and the nurse pay rise protests in the comparisons.

If anything this police intervention in any protest is just going to encourage those 'up for a scrap' to infest peaceful protests. It's a shame because the messages are then lost from all the protests. All of which I fully agreed with.

Your dislike of BLM and immigrants and therefore the people who make up these groups is well known, in my opinion you think you are are providing a clever cover by including the other demonstrations, I'm sure you will protest your innocence but it feels clear to me what you are really making a point about.

Absolutely agree, trying to cloak himself but we know what he really is.
 
I am not sure, but are they breaking the law of the land yet with the rule of 6 and social distancing now in place.
If not , I expect such gatherings will be made illegal very soon during these Covid19 times.

Then its quite simply a job for the boys in blue, and.....maybe khaki as well to deal with it.



Its going go hapoen.

looking at the coverage it seems to be the usual far right, poorly educated scumbag lot that usually turn out for these sort of things, and as usual ends up in violence. The same ones defending the statues a few months ago no doubt.

Ironically this will only spread the virus even further and cause even more restrictions for the rest of us.

In relation to today’s protest, this couldn’t be further from the truth.

I'm sure the countless NHS workers who were present would be grateful to be called poorly educated scumbags next time they are tending to you or a loved one at the hospital or the local doctor's surgery.
Countless because nobody had an exact amount but they were present.

and if that is the case (which I highly doubt it is) then they are exactly that, when they will be back in work next week treating extremely vulnerable people after being in such close proximity with many thousands of people mid pandemic.

again though I highly doubt any of them would show such little regard to their patients

They may just have a different viewpoint or opinion to others. Remember there as many doctors against lockdowns as there are for them probably. We'd be foolish to not listen to both sides.

Also @davidmills for your idea to work would those same people then be due a tax break or reimbursement? Could be used for private medical treatments. (Which is where this country is headed but that's a whole other discussion for another time).

That word probably is doing a hell of a lot of heavy lifting in that statement

yes because having a different view on lockdowns completely justifies mixing in close proximity with thousands of people mid pandemic, when your job is to look after vulnerable people.

again I highly doubt this is true, don’t think anyone would be that irresponsible
