    Would these protests have happened if we hadn't been seeing increasingly large gatherings on beaches and in parks over the last few weeks? I can't say for definte they wouldn't have but I think its been a gradual progression and the reason for those increased gatherings is the lack of clear...

    But you don't mention the government who have over seen this shit show. They opened the beaches and said people could go there while local authorities weren't opening amenities. They were lifting level 1 lockdown measures when they said we were transitioning from 3 to 4but then told us we were...

    The government has made a complete pigs ear of this. From PPE to testing to track and trace to mixed messages but you're more bothered about piers fucking Morgan!

    So it's gone from people weren't bothered about it to they showed a different level of disdain? Morgan being a hypocrite isn't something I'll argue about. He was one long before this pandemic started.

    It was definitely peaceful and good natured from what I saw.

    Who downplayed it? Saw and heard loads of people comment on it. Including Morgan on GMB and on the radio on 5live.

    You keep saying it was ignored when paramedics done it. It wasn't. You're doing what you slate the CET for doing when they report on city. Make something up to try and get people angry. Loads of people commented on the London bridge and outside of hospitals breach of guidelines. It's still...

    George Floyd

    March just gone through Earlsdon. Pretty big march. I'd say 65 percent social distancing 35 percent not bothering.

    I know loads of people who started breaking rules after the Cummings incident. Not ignoring everything but who started going to visit family and allowing family to visit them. Not the same as flocking to the beach but at a time when the country needed strong leadership and resolve we got the...

    Part of the problem in the US is it's an industry and a very profitable one.

    George Floyd

    I didn't agree with that statement. I wouldn't have a clue where it ranks but I very much doubt it's in the top 20.

    agree, but people also need leadership. I said it in another post, someone sneaks a beer to their seat and most people think look at that arsehole. A steward or copper starts drinking a beer in the stand and suddenly half the crowd would be at it.

    George Floyd

    there's absolutely loads out there, I'm not going to spend my Sunday digging it up because I can't be arsed. A good starting point would be the documentary the house we live in if you can track it down. Or just look into how a black teenager with a small amount of cannabis is treated in States...

    it's not bollocks. People look to leadership, it's why we have governments and politicians, ours are letting us down. And everything is politicised, every single thing in society. From the food we eat, to the entertainment we enjoy, somewhere along the line, politics has played a part.

    George Floyd

    most corrupt in the world? Who knows? But their judicial system is deeply flawed, very corrupt and heavily weighted to discriminate against young black males. Joe Biden played a big part in making it so, if he gets in lets hope he rights some of his wrongs.

    I think their point is general lack of leadership and Cummings flouting the rules has lead the lock down not being observed as strictly as it should. I totally agree. Yes people have to bear some personal responsibility but the the lack of clarity and leadership is massively evident to anyone...

    did he? I saw him say he understood why they wanted to protest but hoped protesters were social distancing and wearing PPE. He also tweeted a picture of the Tel Aviv anti corruption protest where they maintained social distancing and said this is how it should be done.
