A policewoman was hospitalised after her horse bolted and another 10 officers were injured after clashes erupted at the Black Lives Matter protests in London last night. Flares were hurled and a Boris bike was thrown at a police horse (inset) as tens of thousands of protesters packed into Parliament Square, despite Priti Patel urging them to stay away to avoid the Covid danger posed by large crowds. Despite the majority of the protests remaining peaceful throughout the day, violence erupted on Whitehall after tens of thousands of protesters had gathered in the capital to oppose racism and demand justice for George Floyd. In the melee a missile was fired near a police horse, causing it to bolt and charge (centre). The female officer riding it slammed into a traffic light and was knocked unconscious before the horse continued galloping down Whitehall where it hit a woman protester and a lamppost. Tensions had been simmering for more than an hour at the end of Downing Street where around 400 people had gathered but the situation escalated after two flares were thrown over the security gates into the street. The Metropolitan Police confirmed that 14 arrests were made and 10 officers were injured in the fracas.

There is a big concern among health officials that the recent protests against police violence could prompt a spike in the number of cases in several weeks. Social distancing becomes difficult in tightly packed crowds, but there are other things you can do to reduce your risk and still show up to protest injustice. Jack Caravanos is a public health expert at New York University. He said make sure to protect your respiratory tract. “The key is of course to keep your mask on,” Caranavos said.
President Trump called protesters demanding an end to the lockdown “responsible people” – hours after encouraging demonstrations in Michigan, Minnesota and Virginia. Trump had earlier called for the “liberation” of the Democrat-run states in a series of incendiary tweets. The president admitted Thursday it was up to governors to reopen their states amid the COVID-19 pandemic, claiming 29 were close to ending their lockdowns. Asked about the protesters Friday, Trump said: “These are people expressing their views. They seem to be very responsible people […] they’ve been treated a little bit rough.” Hours before his conference, Trump tweeted “LIBERATE MINNESOTA.” He then added, “LIBERATE MICHIGAN!” in a second tweet. In a third tweet, he said: “LIBERATE VIRGINIA.” All three states are run by Democratic administrations and all three are likely swing states in November’s election.
