Anti-vaccine protest at Harrogate roundabout
About 10 people took part in a demonstration against covid vaccines at a roundabout in Harrogate today.
The group held placards alongside the Prince of Wales roundabout from about 1pm to 3pm.
It is part of a national movement called Rebels on Roundabouts, which co-ordinates similar anti-vaccine protests at roundabouts across the country.
A Rebels on Roundabouts website says it believes 'the virus has been ruthlessly exploited by a global elite through their puppet politicians and mainstream media' and is a 'scapegoat for the inevitable upcoming collapse of the scam economy'.
Those taking part held up signs saying 'how may vaccines are you going to have before you question it?'. 'why vaccinate teens?' and 'this is not about a virus'.
A participant from Harrogate, who asked not to be named, said the event was organised by people from Leeds and Otley.
