    Maybe we should cancel the Rotary club as I am sure one of their members committed murder.
    The Rotary Club is not expected to maintain law and order.

    No as suggested lets bombard our MPs with letters, sign petitions so they cant ignore them and have a doorstep vigil that all the TV stations broadcast. Project statements on the side of buildings, paint it on the side of a bus etc.

    If you want change you need to embarrass the rulers not argue with coppers for breaking the law.

    Better than trying to drown them like those West Country folk.....

    If it breaches pandemic protocols YES. If it doesn't NO.

    Even YOU ought to be able to grasp that, blessed as you are with a head that is emptier than a Hermit's address book.

    I think it's mainly the militant "Karens" he has a problem with. (Perhaps he's married to one. )

    Another of your "guesses" sailing way out of bounds then. I am opposed to ALL breaches of the pandemic rules.
    Perhaps you can justify why you seem to find this vigil acceptable based solely on the premise that other groups have done similar.
    Try that defence in a court and see how much water it holds.

    It might if the only mass gatherings that trigger you are the women, the blacks and the environmentalists.

    You are right of course. Defacing statues and abusing the Police when they try and get you to adhere to pandemic rules has really captured the heart of the nation.
    Odd that the Met Police chose a vigil for the death of a woman that had predominately female participants to do that.

    The fact they left protests that had predominately male participants alone says something about the Met Police.

    Arguably, one of the worst involved predominantly white men. And this was very recent.
