Hundreds of protesters gathered in Birmingham on Saturday (October 31) to oppose an expected second national coronavirus lockdown.

Later that day, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson announced a new lockdown that will last until December.

The demonstrators, most of whom were not wearing masks, held banners calling Covid-19 a 'hoax' and demanding an end to social distancing rules.

As well as demands for freedom and resistance to the anticipated restrictions, were groundless conspiracy theories about 5G and vaccine safety.

Well-known conspiracy theorist David Icke, who claims he is the son of God and that the world is run by reptiles, was reported to be among the speakers.
