In photos: Covid-19 anti-mask protests, central London, Sat 17th Oct 2020

As coronavirus rates continue to spiral upwards across the UK, two small groups of mask-less conspiracy loons decided to take to the streets of London to demand their right to infect people at will.

The first group of 30 people or so had set up in Whitehall, where a ranting Welsh woman shouted out an incredibly long and incoherent speech while stood next to a bloke dressed – appropriately – in a clown outfit.

This woman with a cut-out mask offered up a whole smorgasbord of on-trend conspiracy memes.

The Bill Gates one is particularly off the scale in stupidity,

The gathering was very small indeed.

There was a slightly bigger assembly in Leicester Square where some 250 covid deniers/Trump fans/conspiracy afficiandos had gathered.

No one in the crowd was wearing a mask.

Interestingly for a march that was supposedly all about personal freedom of choice, several protesters took great exception to my personal choice to wear a mask. One even went a far as to suggest he was going to come over and rip mine off.

For a more informed view: Face masks: what the data say

The ‘chipped’ stuff is seriously unhinged, especially when you can just about guarantee they’ll be carrying around a phone that already tracks their every movement.
