Freedom march today.

[Baluchistan95]

Anyone going?

Has anyone shouted WAKE UP PEOPLE in the last few posts? It's the only way people will listen to the calm reasoned arguments that follow...

@baluchistan95
How about a compromise?

Yesterday's protest included people aggressively bursting into shopping centres intimidating shoppers and staff, holding up racist placards, and vandalising buses (taking away people's freedom to shop and travel).

How about next time, Covid safe measures depending, they lose the nastiness and instead organise a giant (peaceful) water fight in the park?

Anti-vaccination protesters storm Westfield shopping centre and clash with police. Once inside, protesters lit red flares as terrified staff locked themselves inside shops and customers fled.

Do you believe everything you read? Lol. Scary. WAKE UP, PEOPLE.

you asked for source and then you got one @Baluchistan95

there's plenty of videos showing that protesters wanting "freedom" led to the shut down of shops in Westfield (where people had previously freely been shopping...)

@Baluchistan95 - you still haven’t said what we should be waking up about?

@Sadsiblingatsea

Fantastic peaceful rally yesterday. Roll on the next one!

Get a hobby.

Marching/ambling around London on a Saturday afternoon in the name of protest has become a day out, rather than anything meaningful.

WAKE UP, PEOPLE.

Coffee's on you? Can I have a slice of cake with that please.

Hilarious. You quote a local rag as a source that no one has ever heard of. Comedy gold. You couldn't make it up.

The Westfield Wallies were just being provocatively obstinate and looking to cause trouble. Luckily the police were readily placed to keep most of the anarchists out.

WAKE UP PEOPLE

Ah, that helps. I now regret my 2 vaccinations, and my volunteering to vaccinate people in the hope of us getting out of this mess that is ruining my young adult DCs' lives. Thank goodness you yelled at me, it's all clear now.

The Westfield Wallies

Somebody has to claim that for their band name!

It is telling that the main argument of people who support marches like this is to repeatedly type "wake up people" in capitals so we "ALL GET THE MESSAGE!". Grow up.

They could do a cover version of Wake Me Up Before You Go Go.

WAKE UP? Funnily enough I've just woken up from my nap. I'm exhausted after my 5 mile post lunch walk with friends. I'd really hate to be you OP. Wanging on about freedom and getting on with life while I've actually been getting on with it.

@pinkearedcow

Yes!

They'd have to do the 2unlimited/Vicar of Dibley mix of No No No as well.

How can we WAKE UP when you won't tell us what we need to know to wake up?

WAKE UP, PEEPS. Seriously.

I’ve guessing from their responses that those at the march today don’t know what it was about, they just followed others.
They missed out on a lovely day enjoying yourself in the sunshine - can’t think of any restrictions to my freedom which impacted onto my day.

You know I am preparing to consider their views. I know conspiracies do happen so I am open but the lack of willingness to engage tells me that perhaps this isn't one of those conspiracies. I guess we will all find out in years to come.

At the end of the day it's all about fear - my fear of the virus and their fear of control ( or something) so we do have more in common than we think.

@Baluchistan95

WAKE UP, PEEPS. Seriously.

When you say that you sound like an utter fool. If you really believe this stuff and want to persuade others then you're going about it in totally the wrong way.
