A lot of the people on this rally are also anti the vaccine. They’re part of the problem in every way and in no part part of the solution.
I would dearly love to know whether children will be offered to be vaccinated , or whether that would be taken up?
Agreed. Especially as we don't seem overly disposed to controlling borders efficiently.I think it makes more sense to ensure adults across the world get their doses first. Once we’ve double jabbed all over 18 here we should then focus on getting the world caught up

Fuck me just seen how bad it is in India
What the hell happened to kick it off that bad?
Yep need to be cautiously optimistic. Was gobsmacked India let 50000 into the cricketDecided economy was more important and it was under control enough to open up. Only a few weeks ago 50k people watched the cricket. When I watched that and given the population density my immediate thought was "it's going to get bad". But not to this extent as I thought the heat might help.
Just goes to show how quickly things can change and how we need to be vigilant. Only reason I think we can be a bit more open is the vaccination programme reducing deaths. Outside my local pub yesterday there were dozens of people crowded round the front seating area because it was in the sun. Loads of space around the rest of the outside of the pub but everyone packed into there.

I see there was another mentalist convention in London yesterday. Are they just not watching the scenes in India? There was some proper Qanon placards flying around.
Hard to believe that is a legit headline from the Mail. Absolutely going after Johnson.Actions and words aligning perfectly
And yet despite that, this is also a headline article on their website.Actions and words aligning perfectly
That clearly isn't the point.I didn't realise Covid-19 could differentiate between mass gatherings depending on the causes they support or oppose.

Ah, Cummings wife is writing for them? I wasn't aware. The Mail will be dismissed as woke nonsense now. Or will it? Be interesting to see how this one plays out.Its almost as if the man working against him in the background has a wife who is a senior journalist on the paper!
Me neither. When was this announced?I didn't realise Covid-19 could differentiate between mass gatherings depending on the causes they support or oppose.
Think he’s referring to Goves wife.Ah, Cummings wife is writing for them? I wasn't aware. The Mail will be dismissed as woke nonsense now. Or will it? Be interesting to see how this one plays out.
Didn’t even know she was a journo. Fair enough, makes sense. Going to get pretty awkward in the Tory ranks.Think he’s referring to Goves wife.

Point isn’t the protest, point is they were protesting to say COVID isn’t harmful while tens of thousands die each day in India.
That clearly isn't the point.
The fact is, no one should be out protesting when there is a worldwide pandemic.
It might be uncomfortable to hear, but some protests have received an 'allow it' status. It pisses me off because when I stick to the rules, others clearly haven't bothered. This particular protest I don't agree with either (just for the record).
With yesterdays cup final being a test event what are they actually testing? The process of getting people in and out of grounds safely, not crowding around F&B outlets etc or just the raw numbers of infections that show up in the next couple of weeks from people who attended?
If they're testing rule compliance then there will definitely be some flags raised. A condition of entry was masks being worn at all times but every shot of the crowd was full of people with no masks or masks around their chins.
Hope that doesn't count against football and move us down the queue of things waiting to be given the green light.
It is still a different point.The fact is, no one should be out protesting when there is a worldwide pandemic.

There is, or at least was at one point, an exemption for protests in the rules. However the protests are supposed to be organised and enforce social distancing & mask wearing which a lot have attempted, to varying degrees of success.It might be uncomfortable to hear, but some protests have received an 'allow it' status.

Its not some protests its pretty much all of them, and that includes gatherings by football supporters like when we all went to Broadgate to celebrate.
The Sarah Everard vigil and the nurses protesting were the only one where they seemed to decide they were going to enforce the rules.
Some of those nurses have 10k fineshanging over them.

At the risk of opening a can of worms this was a very different thing with zero social distancing or mask wearing. There's even footage online of protesters trying to rip masks off people wearing them.
What I can't get my head around is the police response. Whatever you think of things like BLM or the Sarah Everard vigil the police response was very different to what was seen here. Footage online of the police being attacked by protesters and running away being chased yet the Met puts out a tweet saying 'thank you to everyone', very bizarre.
Hard to believe that is a legit headline from the Mail. Absolutely going after Johnson.
I imagine they will now look to trace everyone’s subsequent infection status
