suggesting the lockdown could continue beyond July.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The country was supposed to exit all lockdown restrictions on June 21st, dubbed \u201cfreedom day\u201d by the media.<\/p>\n<p>However, Prime Minister Boris Johnson will today announce a four week extension to the restrictions, meaning that Brits had more freedom in July 2020 compared to now despite the vast majority of \u201cvulnerable\u201d people having received the vaccine.<\/p>\n<p>But there\u2019s absolutely no guarantee the lockdown will end next month.<\/p>\n<p>The same advisers who\u00a0<a

control\u201d and \u201ctotalitarian\u201d fear tactics to terrify the British public into compliance are still fearmongering about the Indian variant of the virus in a bid to prolong restrictions for months longer.<\/p>\n<p>By delaying the lifting of lockdown until September, a \u201cthird wave\u201d of COVID will then be pushed into autumn\/winter, meaning the narrative that the NHS will be \u201coverwhelmed\u201d can be trotted out once again.<\/p>\n<p>Then it becomes \u201cjust one more lockdown to save Christmas\u201d (the same thing Brits were told last Christmas) and around we go over and over again.<\/p>\n<div class=\"twitter-tweet twitter-tweet-rendered\"><iframe id=\"twitter-widget-4\" class=\"\" title=\"Twitter Tweet\"
