They don’t seem to follow the same script on this one.
Conservative MP Sir Desmond Swayne has said he is “appalled” by the impact of coronavirus laws on the right to legally protest in the UK.
Speaking with talkRADIO’s Julia Hartley-Brewer, the lockdown sceptic said: “Even if you could show me that we are saving lives…I take the view that liberty is more important and that these liberties were bought themselves at a cost of lives and should not be so lightly given away.”
It comes after more than 150 arrests were made during an anti-lockdown protest in London’s West End over the weekend.
Police were booed and faced chants of “shame on you” as protesters, many not wearing face masks, refused to leave.
