Black Lives Matter protesters gather in London's Hyde Park

DEMONSTRATORS HAVE GATHERED gathered in London’s Hyde Park for a Black Lives Matter protest in memory of George Floyd, a black man who was killed while being arrested by US police.

A protest in Dublin was held on Monday, and attracted thousands who marched from the GPO to the US embassy and held a minute’s silence.The 28-year-old film star told fellow demonstrators he was “speaking to you from my heart”. Ms Bland died aged 28 while in police custody in Texas following a traffic stop, while Mr Martin was shot and killed, aged 17, by a neighbourhood watch volunteer in Florida, with both deaths sparking protests across the US at the time. I’m speaking to you from my heart. Look, I don’t know if I’m going to have a career after this, but fuck that.

I know the protests are important, but think of all of the lives they are putting at risk by gathering like that. It just seems a bit ironic.

Twice as likely to die of covid but let's all get together for a protest and ignore health warnings 😂😂

Random back lives matter (as needed by the narrative). Not actual black lives, we don't give a feck about them. They're pathetic slaves, just like the rest of you.
