Laurence Fox has joined thousands at protests scheduled for this weekend in London.
Anti-lockdown protesters, anti-austerity activists and environmental campaigners have all planned protests across the capital for the whole weekend.
Speaking to talkRadio, Fox said: “We have had our liberties taken away from us.
“The government don’t even obey their own rules. We are stuck here watching Matt Hancock fondling some young lassie while you’re not allowed to hug your mum and dad.
“We are here to demand a full, final and permanent return of our liberty. That’s why we are here and we are not gonna stop until we get it back.”
Reclaim Party leader Laurence Fox reports from London's anti-lockdown march.

James Melville said: “Hundreds of thousands of people are marching to reclaim normal life and when even Matt Hancock doesn’t play by the rules, it’s time to say #EnoughIsEnough”
And talkRADIO presenter Julia Hartley-Brewer has also joined the protest, and posted photos showing crowds not socially distancing and not wearing masks, with the hashtags #freedommarch #imdone.
The scale of the #londonprotest against the Covid restrictions is absolutely enormous and the media are largely ignoring it. Hundreds of thousands of people are marching to reclaim normal life and when even Matt Hancock doesn’t play by the rules, it’s time to say #EnoughIsEnough

Since you are here
Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.
Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.
Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
