[dazzer6666]

..apparently several hundred (if not more) up on the Downs for an illegal rave, this time near Steyning. Police present, roads closed……seem to get a few of these every summer.

Good for them, too bad the police came. Let the people rave.

Fun police back in action !!!!

What do they expect? Nightclubs and festivals shut for over a year, the governments own test events and subsequent report show very low risk of covid spread by them taking place but still no sign of anything opening back up

Looked hell of a set up

Rather than making it illegal for people to have a good night out without handing their money over to pubs and nightclubs, why not let it happen but insist the organisers leave the site as they found it.

Nightclubs seeing money would be novel for them

This is the right answer......

I don't understand who would set up a DJ rig for these events. Police arrive, turn off the switch and take all the gear away.
Also, last time I done a 'legal' party in a field I could only have half the lights on at a time. Generator couldn't cope and slowwweddd everyyyy thingggg dooowwwwwnnnnn. My 130 bpm discs played at 98 bpm!

This.

Also had to laugh at my mate from Steyning who claims he didn't hear a thing. Either he's going deaf or they had it well tucked away in one of the dips.

Anyway, this will carry on all the time that people can't go out to clubs and festivals legally. Young people aren't just going to stop having fun.

I’m a bit old. Do they have permission to use the site, is livestock and property protected? It’s a bit too easy to be Mr Liberal and say “let the kids have a bit of fun”. All ok until something goes wrong

Loved the comment - Matt Hancock's leaving do.

Absolutely this. Music is a huge part of millions of peoples lives and this is a release. I don't blame them one bit for doing this. Just so there is no rubbish left or damage caused.

Wish I heard and knew where this was, would have 100% attended. Let us rave ffs. Enoughs enough. Music and arts industries hugely struggling with no support from our corrupt chums in power. There will be bigger raves if these restrictions continue. Hopefully the need doesn't come to that.

TBF this doesn't seem to happen as long as enough people turn up before the police. I imagine people do it cos it's fun.

This. All those soppy saps are always totally as one with Gaia. Right up to the point where they have to take responsibilty for their personal littering

Easy answer - no one is allowed to leave until all the rubbish is collected and bagged up. There - result!
