Rachel Riley, 34, vented her frustration as thousands of protestors descended on Trafalgar Square to proclaim their belief that Coronavirus is a “hoax”. The Countdown star called the “anti-vaxxers” a bunch of “village idiot’s” as she condemned the misinformation being circulated by the group.
Rachel shared photos of the protestors holding signs, which included statements such as “Covid hoax” and “Distrust government”.
She wrote alongside the tweet: “National emergency declared as every UK village simultaneously loses their idiot.
“This is why we fight online misinformation.
“The rot social media companies choose to profit from rather than tackle needs some serious questioning.”
