After months of constraints, the country finally reached the last step in the government’s unlocking road map.

But anti-lockdowners have still flocked to the centre of London with anti-vaccination and anti-police signs.

Protesters chanted "shame on police" and "arrest Boris Johnson" as the demonstration moved from Parliament Square to spread onto the road and up to the gates of the Palace of Westminster.

Meanwhile, vaccines have forced down waves of Covid deaths to just ripples despite a spike in the number of reported cases.

Hospital patients are, on average, younger, less poorly and able to leave the wards faster than in previous waves, analysis shows.
