    Nah, it's perfectly reasonable.

    It's the Illuminati or one of that Zeity character's Cunning Plans.

    Maybe he finally managed to get one to work.

    Love the poster "did anyone see a pandemic".

    You have to wonder what their thought reckoning is with these people. I've heard some of them say it is a plot by governments worldwide to keep us under tabs!

    It's like an album cover.

    I wonder how that guy up front really thinks that a second wave right now fits the political agenda and narrative? I don't see anyone benefiting, certainly not the current government. I'd believe a conspiracy that had the government minimising the numbers to push us all back into city centres to save Pret, but what is happening right now is the opposite of that. Who does he thing is organising this second wave? Do any of you speak nutter and can translate?

    I'm saying I missed the 'fun'. It happened to be on my way back to Waterloo following a nice birthday weekend lunch and a stroll through Soho.
    And I didn't have a placard

    By having an outlet for their cretinism, such as cryptotwaddle and technical charting.

    There's a documentary on Netflix about flat-earthers. I think it could also explain the "covid-19" is a myth conspiracy theorist. But at least the flat-earthers are fairly harmless (to others).

    I would be very curious to learn more about those people. Takes guts to show that kind of conviction in your beliefs.
    Do they have a job that requires thinking? How do they get by every day being so ignorant and at the same time so convinced.

    Never understood the idea of a protest, did it once while in uni, one of the political parties was trying to make a case about the other party doing something to students.Not in Uk, it was irrelevant to us also. Anyway, we got the equivalent of 2 nights drinking in cash and we went as a group so it was fun.
    Half way through the protest, we, group of all males from an engineering university, all captivated by the grace of the TV reporter that supposedly was about to interview us. Then our pre-defined slogans suddenly changed to "the girl from (name of tv station) show us your boobies". It rimes in that language. I guess we were a waste of money and I was a hoe back then as well... but I digress

    Anyway, it takes conviction to commute to city centre and spend quite a few hours of your day for a cause, they had to be pretty motivated by it.
    Wish I had that...

    It was probably just a short layover on their way to tax haven, Monaco.

    I think we insulate ourselves from the total stupidity that is out there.

    30 years ago I lived on Arran when David Icke said it was going to be consumed by an earthquake. Now I help run advertising campaigns for finance brands that get plagued by his followers complaining that fiat currencies are imaginary constructs.

    Yep the virus is like NLyUK it doesn't care about your political opinions it just wants someone to infect!
