From the London Daily Mail:
At least 22 are arrested after anti-lockdown protesters chanting 'freedom' clash with police as hundreds march against Covid restrictions through streets of Bournemouth, Liverpool, Basildon and Hyde Park
At least 22 people have today been arrested after anti-lockdown protesters clashed with police when hundreds took to the streets in an ongoing fight against coronavirus restrictions.
Rallies were held in Bournemouth, London and Liverpool, where a growing crowd chanted 'freedom' as they marched through the city centre in the rain this afternoon.
The group in Merseyside were shepherded by police, who later moved in to make arrests, with some demonstrators seen being pepper sprayed as they grappled with officers on the ground.
It is thought that the protest began at 1pm and started with around 100 people gathered on Church Street before the group grew significantly in size.
At least 13 people were arrested during the demonstration in Liverpool, Merseyside Police confirmed.
We will not comply - the rallying cry of freedom.
