A handful of anti COVID-19 lockdown protesters met today by the London Eye hoping to march to the Parliament Square in defiance of the stay at home and social distancing rules. The group was calling for the end of the lockdown which it sees as a manifestation of so called New World Order (or New Normal) but also against vaccination, 5G and other conspiracy topics. Numerous police officers made several arrests as they pushed the protesters away from the area. Few individuals made it to Parliament Square only to be cautioned and arrested too.
