AN “anti-government” protest - along with a counter rally - is set to take place this weekend in Plymouth city centre, leading to concerns that it could be a repeat of last summer’s violent disorder which saw a number of arrests and jail sentences for those convicted.

- By CARL EVE

The national protest movement against the Labour government has spent the last few weeks announcing where a number of demonstrations - dubbed a “National Strike” by organisers, despite it not being promoted by any unions - will take place.

Plymouth city centre has been listed as one of locations and various social media posts have stated that “The Great British National Strike” will take place at the Sundial, in what organisers have said is on “New George Street”, at 12 noon today.

THOUGHT OF THE DAY

Although I am well aware that social media is largely an echo chamber that will feed back to you what you search for, there are no shortage of videos and articles about fashionable dressing for men, while vintage clothing is no longer merely bagged up and donated to charity shops but can yield high prices on re-sale sites such as eBay and Vinted.
