For some, this "event" will be a death sentence.

the park, one day for the event, the second for the clean-up. Maybe Saturday will be rainy for them.

Good luck! I'm glad you're one of the serious folks.

It is not just the park you see, are they going to be in my local waitrose pricking up stuff for the picnic? I do not want to be anywhere near the environment of such reckless people.

It is good to know the United States does not have a corner on the market of rank stupidity.

and damn, we must have been neighbours, lol

I grew up so close Hyde Park (South Kensington)

SW7 ftw

W2. We should have a bet on high many turn up with one of these on

And often supportive of the Prime Minister to a frankly creepy degree (see the "clap for Boris" when he caught Coronavirus)

However, there is a minority of right wingers who are anti lockdown. Usually to be found in the comment pages of the Telegraph and the Spectator but not many other places. That view hasn't gained much traction as yet with people as most Tory voters are more concerned with stopping a global pandemic than fussing over libertarian ideology.

It was however only a matter of time before the anti lockdown movement came to the UK. And they may start gaining more support among more people.

years now, other than quick trip every now and then to see mummy and father. I do not normally peruse the comments sections of the Torygraph anyway, lolol. I have seen some of the RW rabble whinging on about lockdowns in the DM.

We also have a few on the Chelsea (footie) boards I go on, most of the posters have been quite rational (shockingly.) Most of the true rotters are yanks anyway. Trump Humpers, but the admins on the main one are mostly lefties and boot the worst, as they always go all white pride hate spew (usually massive Muslim bashes.) 2 of the admins are Muslim, so that shite doesnt last long, lolol. One of the Muslim admins is a damn Tory though (he was Remain at least), so I get into some argy bargy with him, have for years. He banned me for a month long ago when I kept posting Cameron as a pig fucker gifs and pics, lolololol.

.... On the local community Farcebook group where I live. Partly because the admin is a Tory activist who works for a local Tory MP!

Needless to say that said local community Farcebook group does tend to be quite right wing as a result. Local community Farcebook groups often show off the best in local communities but they also frequently show off the worst side and I don't think this is always an accident.

Nevertheless, you can clearly see from these things how Tory voters are thinking at present. They are just as concerned about Coronavirus and social distancing as anybody else. And somebody trying to stoke up anti lockdown sentiment in such places will be sure to get a very hostile reception from all sides of the political spectrum.

This is the 1st Civil war where the rebels are killing themselves.

so does a rampant case of stoopid.

If he can't write the headlines to suit he can always pay to provide them.

I hope the local constabulary will be on hand in Endcliffe Park and Norfolk Park to dish out lots of lovely fines.

and avoid any residual contamination, Darwin will take care of them.

I hope they pass buckets round to fund the extra PPE health staff will need.
