Young People Standing Up?

Hello all! I am a 22 year old professional living in Gloucestershire. We have all witnessed the most shocking acts of totalitarianism from a British government, which is now blatantly based on lies. Our ability to be properly human, particularly in the social sense, has been annihilated from all sides. With no end in sight I can only ask what can I do to stand up? One key way seems to be networking with one another. So I am hopeful I might find like-minded young people here who would like to connect, meet at protests or similiar; let me know if you would! 🙂

There are some existing young people's anti-lockdown "websites" at:

and

But neither seems to have done that much. I do hope more can be done.

Overheard in the park today - a group of young lads were discussing the situation - they didn't believe any of this b.s. - it was almost like listening to a discussion one would find here - I was uplifted to hear it.

I attended the rally in Trafalgar Square on Saturday 26th. It was peaceful and a wonderful friendly atmosphere pervaded the whole event. People of all ages and race attended and all was well until a sense of unease seemed to filter through the crowd. I was in the area near the National Gallery and a member of the public started to shout and warn the public to leave the corner as police were massing ready to charge with batons.Most (including me) didn't believe it.We thought it was a trick.A troublemaker?

Suddenly the police charged pinning us into the area .It was truly terrifying.We managed to get out of the area and down the steps of the National Gallery.

This action is reprehensible towards a happy peaceful crowd. We must now fight louder and longer and harder than ever. We must not be deterred or disillusioned.We must continue protesting for a better world. A world we already know and love needs to be returned to us.Now!

I'm 26, and I think it's a particularly difficult thing for younger people to know what to do or where to turn. I think our age group tend to be one of the worst at accepting anything other than the mainstream view, or just whatever is trendy at the time. It's so isolating and I really am starting to feel totally lost. I'm not a million miles from you, I'm in Southampton

You are doing fine. As long as you are at least thinking about the unfolding nightmare .It's a start. I have young grandchildren and I am proud to say they are intelligent enough to see the madness around them. My granddaughter shouted "This frigging virus!" at school and I am now bursting with pride! Brilliant.

My grandson (9) was told off for touching his best friend. How on earth has it come to this?What have they done!

The students need to rise up and rebel. E-f**king- nuff (as Malcolm Tucker would say).

E-f**king-nuff!

@Diane Roche - A lady posted elsewhere that her 2 young boys weren't allowed to have a school photograph taken together because of the 'virus'. Yet they live and play together at home every day. What utter madness! There is absolutely no common sense over this any more. Even from people you would normally class as reasonably intelligent.

As for the demonstration, I knew the police were going to charge at some point in the proceedings. It was premeditated. I'm surprised it took them so long though. I suppose they were waiting for some trouble to kick off, but it never did, as the crowd was very well behaved. They had to wade in eventually on some sort of feeble pretext.

@Diane Roche Your mention of Malcolm Tucker momentarily had me confusing with Jeffrey A Tucker (AIER anti-lockdown columnist https://www.aier.org/article/even-a-military-enforced-quarantine-cant-stop-the-virus-study-reveals/ ). Just wondering what crossing him with the spin-doctor of "The Thick of It" could result in.

I wondered when we'd hear news of this, it's really been bothering me. I'm so sorry to hear that. are you ok? - I mean as much as you can be?

Hi Rhys and Amy

I've posted this lovely piece by Iain Davies about 'resist' on Facebook. Having attended many rallies the only satisfaction you get is mingling with other like-minded people. But, once you leave the rally it all seems to stay the same. I'm with Iain here along with a growing sense that you cannot change an old system you have to create a new one and his article says it all. Lots of love to you both. I live in Oxfordshire and we're starting a local group to support each other in our efforts to wake others up. If anyone is close we can communicate further. Don't forget to follow UKColumn.org

Hello young person! I'm so heartened to see the youth stand against this, it's what am teaching my young kids - discernment and standing firm . Good on you! Your parents must be so proud (I hope my kids will be too). Only advice I can give to you as an older female is - just go and be whatever your gut says even if you shake and qake. Even when you know it's wrong, and it scared you just keep on going on even if your voice shakes. Fear, human response is natural and nothing to be ashamed about- it's how you respond and 'feel the fear but do it anyway!' . We need to realise that all our responses are natural and our gov are making us disconnect to this bodily nature. We are human- embrace and get to know your biology. Anger, pain, anxiety, elation, contact, love, fear, and all the rest is ours as humans! We embrace and no shame we are human. What they doing is inhuman and so disconnect only thing for it is just immerse yourself within humanity and with no apologies about it. Only thing we need to apologise for is letting it get this far and you kids taking brunt. I'm sorry. Fight for you kids and my own, I promise.
