Anti-vax campaigners tried to use a “crime number” issued to them by the police to claim vaccination centres are breaking the law.
In response, Dom Joly tweeted: “Random little groups of mouth-breathers wandering around annoying everybody while sounding like nine-year olds trying to read legal documents. I repeat, what on Earth do these single cell organisms do for a living?”
It comes as crowds gather in various cities against the government’s proposal to enforce compulsory COVID-19 vaccinations for healthcare workers by April 2022
Police number
The protestors were given the number after making a formal allegation to the Metropolitan Police that vaccines are dangerous.
Police say it “merely acknowledges” an allegation has been received but there is currently no criminal investigation.
On Thursday, campaigners tried to close a centre in Stockport, falsely claiming police were investigating a crime.
GMP say officers were called by a group saying a crime was being committed at the health centre and it wanted the police to “seize the evidence”.
n a statement the Metropolitan Police said: “A crime reference number was created and provided to the complainants.
“This is not an indication that an investigation is under way or that a crime has been committed.
“It merely acknowledges that an allegation has been received and recorded.
“While the assessment continues, to date there is nothing to indicate that a crime has been committed and no criminal investigation has been launched.”
