Covid-19: Arrests at London anti-lockdown protest

Eighteen people have been arrested at a protest in central London over coronavirus lockdown restrictions. Large crowds gathered outside Buckingham Palace, where police were stationed, before moving on to Trafalgar Square. Some protesters carried placards calling for 'freedom' and an end to the 'tyranny' of Covid-19 restrictions. The Metropolitan Police said the crowds had been dispersed but urged people to continue social distancing.
