Today's Highlighted Video Story: Anti-lockdown protests have continued in the Netherlands, with scores of people taking to the streets of The Hague to condemn the government’s coronavirus policies. The protest has been met with a forceful police response.
Hundreds of anti-government protesters gathered in The Hague on Sunday on the eve of the country’s general election, which is set to span over three days in order to avoid large crowds gathering at the voting stations as a precaution against the coronavirus.
Focus of the Day Article: 'Regarding the Covid restrictions, RTS have stated that the initial
indication from the Metropolitan Police (“MPS”) was that they
were “trying to navigate a way through” and that they were “currently
developing a local policing plan” to allow the vigil to take place. No
doubt that would have been reassuring to those who wished to attend,
weighing the risks presented by Covid to themselves and to the community
at large with the importance to them of gathering with others as a
means of expressing themselves on the issues raised by Sarah Everard’s
death.' Full story - UK Human Rights Blog
