London mayor labels government 'hapless' as capital faces more COVID measures. Coronavirus latest 👇

13:31Sir David King, who has been critical of the easing of lockdown measures tells Sky News:"Unless we can get a functioning Test and Trace system up and running quickly it means we have to go into second total lockdown.

"The second thing is, work at home if at all possible - we should be instructed on that. No return to workplaces should take place if they are not COVID safe. Asked about Oxford University's Professor Carl Heneghan's suggestion earlier on Sophy Ridge on Sunday that the government should consider bringing in any new national lockdown rules over Christmas rather than now, Sir David replied:"I don't think very much of it, frankly."

Kimmel, who will be hosting the live TV awards ceremony, will oversee proceedings from the usual Staples Centre in Los Angeles - but without a packed audience or a red carpet. "If ministers had risen to this moment, as the British public have, then the loss of many lives and much of the economic hardship could have been avoided.

The regional government has ordered a lockdown from Monday in some of the poorer areas of the city and its outskirts that are home to about 850,000 people. A new poll has now suggested 57% of people fear local restrictions will result, with nearly half indicating they will blame the government. Sir Graham told The Sunday Telegraph that he would take the opportunity to seek to amend the legislation when the government comes to renew the emergency powers in the Coronavirus Act 2020.

Extra measures, preventing households from mixing in private homes and meaning pubs and restaurants must shut by 10pm, are due to come into force to tackle rising coronavirus rates in Lancashire on Tuesday. "It is absolutely critical that residents and businesses adhere to the new 'rule of six' restrictions and follow all Covid guidelines around social distancing and wearing of face coverings.

From 28 September, people will be required to self-isolate by law if they test positive or are contacted by a test and trace service.The worst offenders who breach self-isolation rules could be handed £10,000 fines.New COVID cases in Russia above 6,000 for second day Matt Hancock called on people to report rule breakers and not attend venues that don't stick to social distancing rules.

Who said generation of Neanderthals have been extinct? That's not true. 🙂😜

The exact same protest called this headline “conspiracy protests”.

These people teach us the importance of education..

Where is my mask?

I can’t say I’m surprised to see that SayNoToLockdown is trending. Unsurprisingly, the snowflakes whinging about a lockdown are Brexiters, anti-maskers, conspiracy theorists, bigots, nationalists, racists and xenophobes.

Scum bags

Complete idiots

Absolute idiots, what can I say shot um

How many arrests? God, our police are crap.

Antivaxxers.... Ughhhh

Fine them all, use the money to help set up COVID testing or support NHS staff.

What, no kneeling?

I’ve seen more people at a Tubaware party.

How can people be anti vaccine lol just mind boggles me

Funnily the media will not report any deaths from this mass gathering...because simply put... no will die...people are so gullible and believe everything these manipulating lying politicians throw at them... criticise everything

Crypto_Bitlord AWESOME!

Soooo where do they think all the dead bodies came from then ? If this is all a hoax , bit rough on the relatives of the dead And our brave NHS or don’t we care now ? They should learn their History see how other pandemics happened and how they eventually were stopped-

These people will have no one to blame but themselves when they have to impose further restrictions 🙄

Because they’re are all nut jobs

Reminiscent of the violent Black Knives Matter protest............. 🤔

Would the March against cancer treatments, blood transfusion, scans, emergency treatment, drugs and vaccines that save lives, have they a brain cell between them

Oh well, when the death rate increases can it be made that these don’t get counted, and better if they were just thrown into a mass grave and covered in lime, don’t want infection spreading.

Pathetic toddlers

Bellends

Don’t these hippies have something better to be getting on with?

Fools😆😆

Idiots

The only people who clashed with the police are the same idiots that clashed with the police during the BLM protests. Taking away the point of the whole thing

Amazing scenes. ScamdemicIsOver

Well if they all catch the virus and die or kill a loved one then 🤔tuff 💩

I work in the NHS and it’s bloody tough at the moment. And seeing this makes me angry 😡

It’s not tyranny to consider the welfare of others.... COVIDIDIOTS

more lies from sky

This is the far right National Socialist trying to shit sturr and cause division

Yet they’re the ones who’ll need those things when they get ill...

Either choose to wear it or not, but why protest ?

Let's have a huge dose of irony and hope they all catch the virus!

Ask them all to volunteer at hospital’s and care homes that are treating COVID-19 patients.They can help the exhausted staff with the cleaning up and moving of the dead without any PPE.

Unbelievable thanks for another lockdown soon well done all

What a collection of losers

Water cannons .......... simples

Brexit rally?

And

Were these numpties always with us? I know that lots of people objected irrationally to seat belts and other safety measures, and believed in stupid conspiracy theories, but they didn’t seem so organised or so evangelical about it. I guess social media are the game-changers.

Should of been on this 4 months ago before they fucked the economy. Too little too late!

Anti-mask AND vaccine demonstrators? Why the fuq would anyone want to demonstrate against a vaccine?!?! What a bunch of peculiar people! 🤔

Well done all. As Boris stated.... everyone has the right to protest.

Excuse my french “fu***** tw**s”

🤦‍♂️

Start issuing max fines. Repeat offenders 14 days prison.

It’s probably the same people who go protesting every other week in the name of BLM

If it actually IS a conspiracy, it is probably intended to flush out all the morons in society. It appears to be working.

The irony! Notice the half wit demonstrator wearing a mask. 👀

Wankers lot of them

Looks like rent a mob

Sweden style rather than Chinese Communist Party style should be copied internationally.

CCP MAN MADE THE COVID-19 VIRUS 🦠

are they taking government payments

What is wrong with some people.

It is tyranny now, glad there are some in London making this point knocking on the governments door

Absolutely shocking, people need to take it seriously, it is real and all they are doing is helping spread the virus

Everyone there should sign something from them getting treatment NHS selfish gits,police 👮should be taclikg knife crime not babysitting morons😨

pritipatel what you doing to stop these illegal gatherings? metpoliceuk getagrip not just 32 arrests like yesterday

Come on once again !!!!! Can see a lot of demonstrators, but doesn’t seem to be any ‘clashing’ going on?🤔 In the meantime......................😎

Irony when some off the protesters have masks on. Couldn't make it up, idiots

If you don't believe in taking measures to stop your fellow citizens dying you are either stupid or selfish (or both)

Average age 28?. Don’t see their parents and grand parents stood next to them !

Channels like & BBCNews should stop giving these idiotic groups the coverage they crave. Seriously how could you protest against finding a vaccine for deadly virus? And is it too hard to sit in your home or get out the pub by 10? Grow up!

Herd immunity in action.

Kettle them and issue FPN to each and everyone of them.

Lock the bastards up

Good

It's bad enough that some of these people have slept with their cousins. But, most of them look like they have slept with themselves.

Idiots.

Can we please lock these people away? Anywhere? Absolute morons who deserve to catch covid-19

The people have had enough of this bullshit....

Absolute tossers the lot of them

They should be thrown to the giant turtles they think are holding up the world.

Where is the clash with police in this video?

Anti-everything eejits triggered by another lockdown..... Bloody ironic eh.

If any of these people work with the public employers please sack them for attending mass gatherings with no social distancing.Plenty of others are ready to fill their shoes who have lost their job👍

You have no right to call anyone hapless. Take a look in the mirror or look up the word hapless in the dictionary. You’ll find your picture right there beside it!

Nonsense, this Govt isn't that good .

Sadiq Khan can also be labelled ‘hapless’ but that would be too kind

SadiqKhan are you for real , your hapless in the way you manage London , people ion Glasshouses comes to mind 🤔

What concerns me the most is the increasing surveillance.

No fireworks No peace No fireworks No peace

Why were labelling things, anyone have one for the mayor? 🤭

Pot, kettle.

Pot, meet kettle....

My God, has he no self awareness. The irony in him calling anyone else hapless is off the charts.

Sadiq, you’re hapless on crime mate.

Total lockdown is the only thing needed
