There was ten or so people on Seaford beach on Sunday morning protesting against lockdown. While hundreds of people wandered round, played with friends and family, set off for pubs,etcProtesting on the street about being locked in their homes

Why oh why oh why?
I love the completely incongruous can of Gin & Tonic in hand.
Some people just need to be angry about something...

They didn't seem particularly cheery and failed to get my Father Ted reference
It's almost like if you constantly go around telling people the BBC are anti-British and the enemy within then stupid, impressionable people will start attacking people who work for it

Unfortunately lockdown has contributed to those of a weak mind spending more time on the internet reading ******** conspicersy theories.....
Would be intriguing to find out exactly what it is they can't do now that they so desperately want to do they're protesting in central London about it. I mean, judging by the fact they're hanging around abusing passers by in central London on a Tuesday morning I'd imagine it's not "going to the office".

Did they know who he was? Or were they going after him because he was (unwisely) wearing a BBC lanyard?
Down with that sort of thing?

Digressing, there was an incredible call on LBC at just after 1 today, in fact a couple of calls.
The main one was from a hypocritcal woman, fuming about the treatment of the young ..... no nightclubbing, her undergraduate daughter cheated by shoddy remote learning. I get all that, I totally emphasise with that age group.
Fair enough.
Then the real reason for her call. She's strongly anti vax for all young people, because "she'd read up an awful lot about it on the internet". Pretty beligerent about it. 18 to 22 year olds will be treated as genome guinea pigs.
It was pointed out that a vax programme should help open up possibilities eg real Uni teaching. Wouldn't listen, the call was terminated as she was looking for an anti-vax row.
The next caller was a bloke who was against the current restrictions "Without them, there'd only be a few deaths here and there". He also played down the January 2021 death toll, as it was only on a par with the flu in a normal year.
People are protesting about measures taken in the face of a global pandemic? Geez, what sort of moron have some of our fellow citizens been breeding all these years?

Probably one of the following which are still not allowed.
Dancing at a wedding (other than the first dance)
Not being served a pint at a Wetherspoons bar, and standing around being idiots
Falling down drink on a nightclub dance floor
Not wanting to quarantine after their annual holiday in Benidorm
Erm that's about it.

We are hardly in a lockdown now are we? Shops are open, people can go out and have a drink if they so desperately want one or several. The sun is shining. These people need to grow up.
