104 people have been arrested in London for breaches of lockdown regulations, LBC reports.
Hundreds of people marched through central London last night, protesting the start of the country's second nationwide lockdown, due to extend until December 2. The protesters chanted, "Freedom!" and "No more lockdown," to which police responded with, "You're breaking the law."
The British government had previously warned that enforcement of the regulations would be stricter than in the past.
Commander Jane Connors of the Metropolitan Police (London's police force), said that, "There can be no excuse for people to dangerously breach regulations which are there to prevent further spread of coronavirus. Tonight, a crowd of people chose to ignore the new regulations, to behave irresponsibly and meet in a dangerous manner. More than 100 of these people have now been arrested and will have to face the consequences of their actions."
