Earlier in the year in the UK, for BLM protests, police took the knee and ignored them. If it’s an anti-lockdown protest, they start grabbing peaceful protestors to arrest! I love honorable police but shame on those who do not stand up and think for themselves, even if it currently means losing their job. That’s terrible but this is not acceptable either. In a free nation, people have the right to peacefully protest, and I didn’t see the protestors throwing bottles, chunks of concrete or fireworks at the police like BLM protestors did over here. I don’t believe in defunding the police but I do believe we need to clean up the corruption in the police force especially at the highest levels where these orders come down from. From Sky News: "UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has “lost all control” as more than a hundred anti-lockdown protesters were arrested in London demonstrating against the government’s strict COVID response, according to Rowan Dean. Britain will head into a three-tiered lockdown system after its four-week lockdown ends on December 2 as the country continues to battle against a second wave of the pandemic. Hundreds of protesters hit the streets of London over the weekend against the prime minister’s lockdowns with many clashing against the police. Sky News host Rowan Dean said the government’s response to this second wave is “really disturbing stuff”. “Boris Johnson has lost all control,” he said. “He seems to have lost the plot completely."
