Tens of thousands of anti-lockdown protesters marched through central London and towards No10 today demanding the ‘arrest’ of Matt Hancock after he was caught breaching Covid rules by kissing his married aide while preaching the restrictions to the rest of the UK.
Anti-lockdown protesters were seen marching along through the capital before descending on Downing Street on Saturday as they called for ‘freedom’ and the end to all Covid lockdown regulations after Freedom Day was delayed from June 21.
As well as demanding the end to lockdown, protesters brandished placards that demanded police ‘arrest Matt Hancock’ after he was caught breaching Covid safety regulations by kissing his married aide – despite asking the rest of the country to follow the strict restrictions.
The health secretary, 42, has been accused of hypocrisy over images and a subsequent video clip showing him kissing Gina Coladangelo at the Department for Health, despite championing draconian restrictions on ordinary citizens.
The crowds lobbed hundreds of tennis balls with ‘not very nice’ messages written on them towards the Houses of Parliament before gathering on Downing Street, where they started chanting ‘shame on you’ and pointing towards Number 10, followed by prolonged booing.
Tens of thousands of protesters had earlier marched through Oxford Street, Regent Street, Hyde Park and Northumberland Avenue as they held placards reading ‘the Boris variant’, ‘no to Covid vaccine’ and ‘no to Covid passport’.

Power to the people.
The protesters are clearly demonstrating the mood of the country and indeed the world on this fake pandemic. And the needless lockdown measures in place.
The people are waking up!
The BBC and the rest of the news media that did not cover the hundreds of thousands gathered in the middle of Central London shows us how corrupt and one-sided they truly are. How about de-funding the BBC? The license fee payers do not want government and cabal propaganda thrust at them instead they demand the TRUTH!
Switch off mainstream news as it so fake!
Tell advertisers of these TV stations that you will not buy their products if they continue to advertise on these propaganda TV stations!
People power works!
