and mass gatherings for 'protests' for a killing on some unknown criminal arsehole are permitted without questions

Finally

But allow mass gatherings in London carry on

NOT PERMITTED by who ? After the past few weekend do you think anyone is listening now

So mass gatherings are 'allowed' in London and other cities but gathering for Mass is still frowned upon? Something a bit skewed there in the thinking of the powers-that-be.

So small social distanced weddings still aren't allowed then.. But my kids are expected to be in a class with around a dozen other kids?

The jig is up. Mayors who want to arrest people for going outside have joined masses of 'protesters'. Amazing how fast social distancing was canceled for right photo op.

If they take some placards and chant slogans such as fcuk the police they'll be fine

Tbh, for most C of E services, social distancing could be maintained without any detriment to the size of congregation

With the so-called Covid19 & the attendant Lockdown, it is obvious that the Covid19CompliantChurches & govt-friendly churches would emerge. In the end God will use the situation to purge His Church and then the fake will be seen for what it is. More difficult days are ahead.

Allowed private prayer only but perfectly ok for thousands to protest ! Yeah makes sense that !

Really u can't go to ur religious place of worship for a hour or 2 but u can stand among thousands of people protesting ?

Open the pub

Finally! Now I can pray to God like a normal person, instead of doing it alone in my house like a wanker!

And there’s no one around in towns and village’s when you watch tv

Nothing will be opening before long with the thousands gathering together. And I cant even hug my mum 🙄
