The Guardian comment deserving of ‘a thousand upticks’

Hundreds of people descended on Hyde Park yesterday in protest against new rules that make the wearing of face masks indoors mandatory.

Masks must be worn in shops and supermarkets in England from July 24th, with those who fail to follow the rules facing a fine of up £100.

Crowds started gathering at about 2pm ahead of an expected march. People held placards reading “I will be not be masked, tested, tracked” and “no mask”, despite polling indicating overwhelming support for masks.

Last week several members of the Conservative Party cut up their membership cards in protest at the move.

This is some of the best online reactions to the protest…

Reading about the 'anti-mask protest' in Hyde Park reinforces my adamant belief that the human race deserves extinction; we are the stupidest species on earth. We are the plague.

I'm confused ?
Clever Hyde Park Girl clearly had nothing better to do today than go to an anti mask protest and … wear a mask. ? pic.twitter.com/INRxujU9Vc

Everyone has the right to protest obviously, but anti-maskers in Hyde Park are literally protesting against something that will keep them, and their families, safe. I’d rather wear a mask than be on a ventilator lol.

So you’re telling me that some people who attended the anti-mask protest in Hyde Park could also be the same people who clapped for the NHS and were against BLM protests??? Nah I’ve had enough. pic.twitter.com/3mWJylBu9P

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.
