Londoners bask in park sunshine despite Boris Johnson begging people to stay home during Covid-19 lockdown … Oh so that’s the story then and not billions under house arrest worldwide? Mainstream media? Bunch of hysteria-generating morons

‘Scores of Londoners have been pictured in parks basking in the weekend sunshine despite Government orders to stay at home to curb the spread of Covid-19.

Boris Johnson has repeatedly urged the country not to give in to the “fine weather” to help save lives during the pandemic.

“Don’t be tempted to meet friends at the park this weekend,” he tweeted on Saturday morning. “Do your bit to protect the NHS and save lives by staying at home.”

But photos of both Battersea and Greenwich park show people laying down in the sunshine, even though sunbathing is not listed among “essential” activities.

Police officers have been pictured speaking to groups lounging on the grass or sitting at park benches.

Under the UK lockdown, Brits can only leave the house if they are key workers travelling to their jobs, shopping or health essentials, or for exercise once a day.

Although walking is allowed under daily exercise if at least two meters away from others, scores of people were seen breaking lockdown rules by laying down in parks.’
