Sarah Everard vigils - Should they go ahead?

[CeramicMX5ND2]

Yes, there is a thread for the originally missing and now very sadly confirmed murdered Sarah Everard - But the possibility of vigils, not only in Clapham, but in various towns across the UK - Should they go ahead?

[FazerBoy]

Yes

[Pothole]

Not necessary and against current Covid regulations. But I'm male, so my opinion is worthless.

[ReverendCounter]

Yes

[Mikebentley]

No, you asked, I answered.

[Sophisticated Sarah]

No. It’s disgusting that political activists are using her death as a tool.

[SiH]

No, they serve no real purpose but can act as a focus for the transmission of disease.
That having been said the Traveller funerals with congregations of ~500 unmasked revellers should also have been prevented from happening, rather than being supported by the Police. But, you know, they're a protected ethnic group.

[RegMolehusband]

No of course not.

Looks good on Instagram, though.

Shouldn't be allowed, will just turn into a festival of the sun's out and encourage other mass participation events.

you shouldn't be posting after 6pm anyway.

[Funk]

No.

[Steve Campbell]

No. Thousands of people haven’t even been able to attend direct loved ones funerals. Why should this be allowed to happen ?

[Quisling]

Is this one of those vigils where you get free shoes and maybe a telly?

[Uncle John]

No. If it goes ahead the hypocrisy will be broken forever.

I don’t really see the point of them but if people get to have a mass participation event that sounds good. I think it will be used as an excuse to party and that is well needed after a year of restrictions.

[dmahon]

Black Lives Matter - Approved!

Feminist Vigil - Approved!

Protest against the destruction of our economy, society and civil liberties - Denied due to Covid!

To answer the question - yes, all of the above should be allowed.

Errrr, we’re still in restrictions last time I looked.

The judge in the court case has refused to intervene.

Many people advocating for this vigil also advocate for a curfew on all men to reduce the risk to females.
