Protesters have gathered in London today to demonstrate against the Government’s delay to the lifting of lockdown restrictions. People held signs reading “Lockdown is a crime against humanity” and “Your obedience is prolonging this nightmare”. Eight arrests have been made at the protest, according to the Metropolitan Police.
The MailOnline has more.
Maskless anti-vaccine and anti-lockdown protesters have clashed with police in central London as they demonstrate against the delay of “Freedom Day” by blocking roads and hugging strangers in defiance of Covid rules…
Protestors offering “free hugs” and demanding an end to all Covid restrictions held signs reading “your obedience is prolonging this nightmare” and “our kids aren’t lab rats” as they marched through the streets…
Loud horns blown by the protestors were seen to spook a group of half-a-dozen police horses who had been drafted in to help control the crowd in Parliament Square.
The protest comes as Boris Johnson seemed to dismiss the prospect of easing the remaining coronavirus rules early, as he refused to rule out future lockdowns. He warned the nation should brace for a ‘rough winter’ whilst visiting a laboratory in Hertfordshire today.
The Prime Minister has delayed ‘Freedom Day’ by four weeks to July 19th – but a two-week review will take place on July 5th to see if the return to normal can be moved forward. Mr Johnson said ‘Delta’ variant cases, hospitalisations and admissions to intensive care are still rising and the country must therefore be ‘cautious’.

‘Obstructive and Hostile to Officers’? Surely not?
These wouldn’t be from the same organisation that fined or arrested people under the wrong laws? Who dragged an old lady into a van outside Parliament? Who have illegally entered private dwellings claiming ‘rules’ were being broken? Who baton charge peaceful respectable Marchers but kneel to an organisation that wants to defund them?
Obstructive and Hostile should be the least of their worries.
According to the definition Mrs Dick is head of an Organised Crime Group
Ms Dick if you please, fucking waste of a cunt.
oh, mr Dick
Arf arf arf in a Sid voice
Yes those c**ts.
A brilliant summary,!
We were there yesterday. ALL trouble is started by the police.
Did you see the group of coppers lining up behind the protesters who were talking to the police. So sinister as they then charged the back of the crowd. This is extremely socialist/communist policing. Nasty, insidious and demeaning. Like thugs in uniform.
Perhaps it is time to identify these police persons and name and shame them?
That was tried in Nottingham and the police turned on the guy who named and shamed. He spent some time in the slammer and now many police don’t wear their number on their uniform.
Masking up is an old tactic of communists. There was always a reason to muzzle citizens. Demoralisation. But muzzlung the police gives protection when they carry out unlawful thuggery.
Anyone at these protests could take photos of the police and gradually build up their own database of who is who, and who did what…? The difficulty these days is that anything compiled or written ‘on-line’ can be picked up, so perhaps the older technology is needed – pen and paper and printed photographs. I have pointed out already that these protests are somewhat of a joke with people just wandering about and singing and dancing and with them being more of a ‘Day Out in London’ rather than with a deadly serious, focused objective. I have never been against (real) vaccinations, but have felt from the beginning that something is not right, and the relentless pushing of these new ‘Covid vaccines’ cannot be normal. I live in Finland and it is here too, every day the government announcing how many new ‘cases’ have been found, and how marvelously the ‘vaccines’ are doing in helping to bring ‘cases’ down. I simply can’t watch the TV ‘News’. I feel that this situation we find ourselves in to be absolutely frightening, and unless there is some real resistance then the ‘unjabbed’ will be punished and perhaps even shoved into concentration camps for… Read more »
Take a look at this video – I have hope for the future but yes, we are indeed in dangerous waters. https://www.bitchute.com/video/rKP61hruGxIt/
They don’t do shame. Only self-righteous prig.
Protestors should’ve made signs proclaiming Bridge Street an unofficial G7 meeting.
They should claim to be from ER or BLM then they could do whatever the fuck they want with no repurcussions. If they get themselves a token goblin as a figurehead they’ll even be granted meetings with cabinet.
Indeed…
Did they have mounted patrols against all the scottish football fans who congregated “against covid rules” last week?
Thought not they’d probably have given them a glaswegian kiss.
Which they would have deserved.
They allowed the footie fans to spray them with beer. It seems to me we have an awful lot of foreign born who rule us and hate us. No other country has so many ethnic members of their Parliament. Look at France and Germany. Look at Italy. LOOK AT CHINA. It seems diversity brings down nations.
It looks like many of the police do not have ‘British’ grandparents.
Heroes. Everyone should be on the streets, if you’re not against this tyranny, you are part of it.
“they’d probably have given them a glaswegian kiss.” Ah… the good old days of physical contact and displays of emotion – how I miss it 🙂
On a serious note, I try not to criticise the ATL crew, but this really is a poor piece from an website supposedly supporting free speech and fighting against lockdowns. It almost reads like the standard MSM line that anyone who doesn’t go along with the Government narrative is some sort of lunatic or potential terrorist. I would have hoped for something a lot more positive and supportive towards those making justified use of their rights to protest and free speech.
(meant as a reply to Catee below)
Don’t really like this chart of English hospital covid labelled deaths (seven day average) by date of death, because it makes it look like there was a second wave bigger than the April 2020 wave. In reality much of the covid labelled deaths in the Autumn/Winter were normal winter deaths labelled up as covid.
But this caveat aside this is the up to date chart (based on deaths reported up to today) with an allowance for deaths that have occurred but not yet been reported at the end to avoid distorting the shape.
If you look at the far right of the chart it does show the nonsense of the talk of the third wave.
So the obedience of much of the population is prolonging the nightmare, despite no cause for concern at all.
Sadly the text is blurred. Do you have a link?
It’s my own chart so there is no link.
If you click on the attachment it should open and not be blurred (?)
Clear as a pin for me if I click it.
Be handy to make a note of when the stabs started being used. Seems to be a surge soon after?
Worth checking out the best rated readers comments. Lots of support!
I didn’t see a single reasoned counter argument. Virtually every negative comment was aersonal attack upon the attendees. ‘Idiots’, ‘not as if they have work in the morning’ etc. This has become akin to the American Civil War, driving apart society, friends, and families. When we are vindicated, and we will be. Let us not forget these time serving sheep.
The American Civil War was before the time of computerised surveillance. There really is nowhere to hide now. They know what you did, they know what brand of toilet paper you bought, they know your thoughts, and they know where your family is. Discussion sites such as this are an excellent way of herding dissenters into the corral for picking off one by one.
You can’t go anywhere without being followed. And all that data is stored forever – where you went last Wednesday, for example. How long will it be that anyone outside London will not be able to purchase a train ticket to London on a Saturday, so that you are kept away from going on any protest there? Under ’emergency measures’ or whatever.
Death to SAGE and lockdown politicians everywhere.
If you believe anything that this bunch of muppets say about freedom and lifting restrictions.
I have a bridge to sell you.
Take heart.
In the slavishly obedient country of Japan, people are openly flouting the Covid lockdown rules by congregating in late night bars.
BBC TV NEWS.
“In the slavishly obedient country of Japan”
Trouble is our very own ‘Bovinus Brittanicus‘ appear to have raised “slavishness” and mindlessness to a whole new level.
the BBC blanking it again of course. Not even anything on their London travel news section.
Some of my family were there today, and this report is a complete crock. Apart from the usual agitators causing a couple of scuffles, and inevitable arrests, the protest was, as usual, completely peaceful and good humoured. A police horse spooked itself, which affected another horse but horses are sentient beings and unpredictable, however police horses are trained to cope with noisy crowd situations, as are their riders, and they were brought under control. The crowd did not spook them with horns. However the police weren’t exactly benign. They half kettled the crowd and split them into two or three groups but the crowd has learnt how to resist aggro from the police. Despite the weather and OTT police presence, it passed without incident. And they didn’t get any free hugs!
whatever the agenda is, it seems to be working very well in the UK
Take a look at this! Mark Sexton reporting a criminal offence of misconduct in public office against a ‘Warwickshire MP’ at Leamington Spa police station :

Maybe the Police could spend some time on this instead of arresting protestors?
If that link fails try https://www.facebook.com/1348501653/videos/d41d8cd9/10226286505692890/
Or this the Hugotalks.com website alongside other intriguing stuff…
I’m not in a position to attend any of these protests, but (maybe other people have thought of and done this already) has anyone who does considered printing placards with graphs comparing cases and/or deaths in places with and without lockdown / masks / social distancing, e.g. this one comparing US states? Or sticking up posters of them somewhere?
Slogans along the lines of “end the lockdown”, “we want freedom”, and “we want ‘the old normal’ back”, probably won’t sway people who have believed the lies and half-truths; they’ll just say “yes, we want that too, but only when (the government tells us) it’s safe!”. Likewise, “your obedience is prolonging this nightmare” or “your obedience only encourages them” -> “yes, but the rules are there for a reason (that we believe makes sense and is for everyone’s good because that’s all we’ve heard) and we’re obeying them to save lives, unlike you irresponsible Covidiots!”
But maybe a graphical illustration of how little difference the restrictions have made to Covid outcomes, would get a few of those people thinking and asking questions?
True ‘COVIDIOCY’ is compliance!
The trouble is the coronaphobes are unable to absorb any other information away from the official narrative that’s been beaten into their craniums by the BBC et al. I think we’ve all tried to lay reason and fact with them but their denial is impenetrable. Short easy messaging is the probably the best way to make inroads.
“Being hostile to officers”
Oh, diddums. Try a busman’s holiday as police officers in Burma, you shoal of bumptious haddock.
TOBY YOUNG’s A WASTE OF SPACE.
Why base a report on the Daily Mail?
Why not send a reporter there yourself?
Where are the links to forthcoming protests on this site?
Where is the list of emails of EVERY SINGLE MP?
Where can we order leaflets a cost price on here?
He’s doing more than any other public figure
Watch this to get some idea of the piss taking we are being subjected to by Pfeffer and crew. It’s the crowd scenes not the footie that is enlightening. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ySyw5Y9ERb4
Video not made available for Finland. Can’t watch it.
The protesters were peaceful and engaged with the police. A policewoman headed her horse into the crowd quite dangerously but the good old Brits just pushed the horse back and stroked its muzzle. The policewoman was aggressive and very fat.
The police presence was overwhelming and a few were extremely hostile. What a joke that forty police officers decided to attack and arrest two young women for standing in the road when XR and BLM are usually blocking roads.
it was a pity not more people went to this march as I think it was more important than Saturday protests. We must start more non W/E marches to really show Parliament we mean business. They do not know, in their echo chamber, anything about the strength of the week end marches because they are never in London on the w/e. Unless we really start disrupting traffic and parliament. Boris, nutnuts and the Globalists will run roughshod over this country. And don’t think the Tories lost Amersham because of HS2, or the LibDems won because people want to rejoin EU. Politicians are completely out of touch.
Why are protests always in London? Anyone thought of a protest outside the homes of members of SAGE? Surely it cannot be long before punishment for the protesters are coming – a refusal to continue paying you social security or unemployment benefit, for example (isn’t this what they did during the miners’ strikes in the 80s?). Starve your family into submission.
I was there yesterday, met up with a very charming but very angry Romanian. He made a very good point. He said it’s no good people just protesting at the weekend we need the same number (i.e. 500,000 plus) outside Downing Street everyday for a week. If people took time off work the Government would take us more seriously. He even went so far as to say people should give up their jobs to protest for as long as it takes then the Government would really take notice as the infrastructure would collapse at an even more alarming rate. He was serious this guy and had lived through the Ceausescu years, so has some experience. He said people have to make sacrifices then he said “they can work and live and holiday and party for the rest of their lives!”
I have been saying this for some time. The Protests on Saturdays have become a jolly that politicians ignore. The real changes come when protesters get so serious they are prepared to march during the week. Every single day. Ghandi created mayhem for the British by organising peaceful sit ins the streets every day for months. Hundreds of thousands joined him to protest the British Government talking to the very disruptive Jenner and Nehru.
This country is insidiously being taken from the SMEs so perhaps they should organise themselves to march with us. They have nothing to lose. People who are working from home or are in danger of losing their jobs, have nothing to lose. My gut feeling is folk will do as they are told until they actually have lost everything. Then there is no peaceful marching. Then there is violence and anarchy which suits the Globalists as they march in and take control. It is quite shocking that so many never think to the future and plan accordingly.
Exactly my Romanian friend said in the end they will shoot the likes of us and then finish off implementing their plan so no protests take place, all the rebels will have gone. We have to wake up!!
Where the FU(K is the evidence for the removal of our liberties. There was a clamor for evidence early on, non was provided yet we continue likely for years.
We certainly have the evidence now proving pretty much beyond all reasonable doubt that Lockdowns do FE(K ALL and worse. C’mon SHEEPLE wake up. Whatever happened to the oft-referenced “British Dunkirk Spirit”?
“Diversity is our strength”. The ‘British spirit’ has been watered down – a nation of people ordering on-line from Tesco’s, delivery drivers on zero hours contracts, and the shops full of tat Made in China. Trains mostly run by Deutsche Bahn, people flocking to Lidl and Aldi (German shops). Sub-postmasters thrown in prison for crimes they didn’t commence yet Paula Vennells still free to count her bonuses, Dido Harding applying to run the NHS which her husband wants to privatise. Imported cheap labour, useless unions… and everyone wearing Hi-Viz jackets. Private companies running the prisons, private companies running airport security, private companies running the Covid test centres, private companies running Social Security/Disability Payments/State Pensions/Unemployment Benefits.
What’s not to like?
You can’t see a doctor if you are ill, but if you wait another 15 years you’ll be able to get from London to Birmingham 10 minutes quicker (if you can afford a ticket).
Be fair, EF.
It’s for RICH people to get to London 20 minutes QUICKER.
You missed the dumbing down of so called culture.
Hostile to the police? Good.
I’m a member of a charitable/social organisation that met weekly until the start of this hysteria and we haven’t met for over a year. This week we will be meeting up for the first time but under “strict” covid rules, ie if you’re standing up you have to wear a mask but if seated you don’t have to. The speaker won’t be standing to give his talk but will remain seated to give it. I’m going to laugh at their stupidity and compliance with the most ridiculous absurdity I have ever known.
As Einstein stated “as far as he was aware there were only 2 things that were infinite, the universe and human stupidity and he wasn’t sure about the universe”. These antics will go down in history as laughable if not more so than thinking wearing an onion wards off the black death.
My compromise to the whole fiasco will be to wear my exempt lanyard, next week I won’t wear it at all (thats if I haven’t been expelled from the club).
Stupidity indeed!!
I have been wearing an onion and I haven’t caught the black death. Ipso facto onions work.
Which is more than you can say about GPs!
I haven’t seen this protest reported on the Beeb. I guess that means it didn’t happen…
Why do papers like the Mail insist on referring to demonstrators as ‘maskless’ when there is not, and never has been, a requirement to wear masks outdoors? They always do this!
It will be jabless soon… or without ID..
Or those still alive.
We have an ultra vires Metropolitan Police acting beyond their powers to stir up violence from a peaceful protest. Proof of a dictatorship?
They are not ‘police’ any more – just thugs protecting the Fat Pig Dictator and his mates.
