The anti-vaxxers storming the BBC…

For a start, what scum.

Secondly, are they actually anti-vaxxers or just rent-a-mob agitators who enjoy protesting and a chance to smash things (and the police) up? I was of the impression that anti-vaxxers were middle-aged people hooked on conspiracy theories, but looking at the footage of the protestors, they mostly appeared to be young men.

Some people just need any excuse and they’ll cause trouble.

BBC Television Centre is a posh block of flats.

They are bigger morons than they first appear.

I saw footage of this , but can't figure out why they are storming the BBC. What does it have to do with jabs for 16 and 17 yr olds ( which I gather these twats are against).

There are only three studios still in operation, the vast majority of the BBC set up is at the old White City Dog Track.

TheTallOakTrees · 09/08/2021 16:48

Why storm the BBC. Some of the anti vax and conspiracy theorists say that covid isn't that bad and invented by MSM to control us Grin. None of them can ever seem to explain how so many countries around the world that struggle to do anything together suddenly get together to invent a pandemic and for what purpose 🤔

Dumb idiots

PinkSparklyPussyCat · 09/08/2021 16:55

Shame we don't have water cannons really!

drinkingwineoutofamug · 09/08/2021 17:09

My partner has watched this. I had to leave the room. An idiot shouting that 'there're coming for our kids' that a lockdown in autumn is coming. That it's not COVID that's the killer, it's the vaccine. More shouts of kid killers, injecting shite into kids blah blah. Then it rained and they went home.

anon12345678901 · 09/08/2021 17:17

They're a pathetic bunch who clearly have nothing better to do on a Monday.

drinkingwineoutofamug · 09/08/2021 17:27

What is the fucker, my partner agrees with this shite , which it's self is disrespectful as I'm a nurse about to be redeployed again on the COVID wards. I know Mumsnetters will give me an alibi

Cornettoninja · 09/08/2021 17:37

That Fox bloke isn’t involved is he? This sounds like his kind of party.

Maybe they melt in the rain or perhaps another one of the batshit theories of chem trails and rain to cover us in mind altering chemicals. They really do have some strange ideas
RuleWithAWoodenFoot · 09/08/2021 17:49

What's the point? They can choose not to have it. Or give it to children.

urbanbuddha · 09/08/2021 18:57

They're as stupid as they look.

Confused anti-vaccine protesters storm BBC hq years after it moved out

brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr · 09/08/2021 19:17

More proof that the anti-pandemic measures folk are - not only thick AF, but batshit too.

frozendaisy · 09/08/2021 19:31

Dumb stumps got the wrong building......Grin brilliant! Kind of indicates it all eh.......

I do wish we had a haha emoji!

FatAnkles · 09/08/2021 19:48

Stupid is as stupid does.

My DH agrees with this lot. In fact with a lot of Internet conspiracies. I used to think he was an intelligent sort, then the lockdowns came...it's not been an easy 2 years...

Can say totally the same. The internet and sm has a lot to answer for. And intelligent person gets their information from a wide range of materials. Not a you tube channel. I've told my partner of a list of resources, my own experience of caring for covid patients. And I'm the deluded one. And breathe

“All formerly properties of the BBC, only two buildings - Broadcast Centre and the Lighthouse - are currently occupied by BBC staff.”

The BBC are still there but have mostly moved to broadcasting house.

This reminds me of when the Sandy Hook conspiracy’s were flying about in America and people took it upon themselves to tell grieving parents they were crisis actors and it was all fake.

I don’t know if it’s deep denial or a need to feel in control by thinking they understand more than they average person but that must be so hard to live with Flowers

MRex · 10/08/2021 09:20

Piers Corbyn can't even organise a riot in the correct place. It's a marvel these people have clothes on when they leave the house.

@drinkingwineoutofamug - I'm so sorry for all you're putting up with, and I've no idea why you do.

You can use all your phone emojis now

drinkingwineoutofamug · 10/08/2021 12:11

@Cornettoninja & @MRex , I preserver as I know it's the next mad cap shite. That and immigration.
It's a mental health thing and for him it's some sort of control bollocks that certainly doesn't work on me. We agree to disagree basically.
I'm a strong intelligent woman. Relationship may of run its course.

Hopefully they get the book thrown at them.
