Sarah Everard vigil banned due to COVID-19 restrictions, judge refuses to intervene

Mar 13 2021 Share

After a dispute between protesters and Metropolitan police over whether or not a vigil for the late Sarah Everard on Saturday, a judge refused to intervene. Reclaim the Streets launched a legal challenge after the vigil to be held at Clapham Common on Saturday was banned, claiming they have a right to protest.

Sky News reports claim Met Police approved the vigil initially but changed their minds due to COVID-19 restrictions. Organisers asked High Court to make a declaration of how any ban on outdoor gatherings under COVID-19 regulations are subject to protest rights. The Judge refused to make the declaration. Protesters are still planning on holding the vigil nonetheless.

St Edward’s College posted a heart-warming video this afternoon on their social media platforms of their staff waving goodbye to their students who were on board their buses on their way home.
 
This comes after last Wednesday it was announced by the government that schools will go completely online due to the high rising daily covid-19 cases in an effort to curb COVID-19 outbreaks in the Maltese community.
 
Students will hopefully be able to return to their respective school in a months time.
