A man dressed in a Squid Game costume played a parody health worker offering jabs at an anti vaccine-mandate protest outside Downing Street on Saturday 22 January.

Workers in the UK's National Health Service (NHS) are required to be vaccinated by April or they could face the sack.

The need for a delay between jabs mean the process of firing what could be more than 70,000 (protesters claim 100,000) as-yet unvaccinated staff could begin on 3 February.

Attendees included NHS staff, people concerned about civil liberties, and some so-called anti-vaxxers.

By April 2022, 100k members of the NHS will have to be fully vaccinated or lose their jobs. In light of this draconian requirement, NHS nurses have come together to protest against such coercion, defending their medical freedom and accusing the government for a total mistreatment of the health workers over the pandemic.

Other anti-lockdown and anti-vaccine groups have jointly protested against the restrictions imposed by the government, and threaten to take to the streets should the restrictions not be lifted by 27th Jan 2022.
