London police breaks up anti-coronavirus protests

London’s police on Saturday tried to break up a protest by more than a thousand people opposed to lockdown measures aimed at slowing the spread of coronavirus.

Demonstrators had gathered in Trafalgar Square in central London carrying banners saying “Freedom Not Fear” and “Scam” and chanting at police: “Choose your side”.

Shortly before 1400 GMT police ordered protesters to leave, saying the demonstration was putting other members of the public at risk. “This, coupled with pockets of hostility and outbreaks of violenceĀ  towards officers, means we will now be taking enforcement action to disperse those who remain in the area,” London’s Metropolitan Police said in a statement. A Reuters witness said several hundred people remained in the square at 1500 GMT as police tried to clear the area. A police spokesman had no immediate information on whether there had been any arrests. Under laws to slow the spread of COVID-19, people in England are not allowed to gather in groups of more than six. There are exemptions for political protests, but only if organizers follow guidelines to reduce the risk of the disease spreading. Organizers of previous anti-lockdown protests have been fined up to 10,000 pounds ($12,914).

Britain has suffered Europe’s highest death toll from COVID-19, with more than 41,000 deaths on the government’s preferred measure, and tests for the disease have not kept up with demand since English schools reopened this month.

Prime Minister Boris Johnson is currently considering whether to reimpose some lockdown restrictions across England. Rising case numbers in parts of northern England have already led to local restrictions on people inviting friends to their homes, and reduced pub and restaurant opening hours. Nick Note: The sad truth is the millennials who had everything do not want their party to end. They live for their parties, drugs, booze and herd events. I am fighting to give you masks that will protect you and they are fighting to not wear masks at all. Something to fuck, something to fuck up and something to get fucked up on. Here i find myself once again on the other side of the issue. Look this is the common reaction from the masse throughout history of the great plagues. Stay off the radar screen and watch them subcomb in mass to the very thing they deny. It takes abstract thought to understand a disease you cannot see. And monkeys are not capable of abstract thought. My latest creation the P3 filter made of UPLA U15 filter paper has been manufactured in Europe. We are now going through labeling and certification. Hopefully i will get them shipped this week. And of course i will send you a sample to help me test its breathing resistance. This material did not exist untilĀ  a few years ago. Semi conductor clean rooms has to have even purer air now that they have gone to the 7um chip. I discovered this material made with a special resin available only in England. It has never been used folded in glass fiber material my way and inserted into a portable canister filter before. Some people for diversion golf. I never wanted to play any game much less any that involves balls. So after the markets i try to make my minor contributions to the crises of our time. My discovery of the coffee paper filter paper conspiracy is just such a minor contribution. Once i found they did not work i had the moral obligation to try and do something about it. Hence our silicone rubber masks and now PR3 UPLA U15 1um virus filters. And no i am not going to patent it. I hope everyone rips me off and produces it in mass. By the way our filters will protect you from smoke…. NOT Co2. And cannot be used in a low oxygen environment. As a side benefit they will filer out most air pollution, pollen and other allergic airborne irritants.
