Who said it

“Seeing Boris get married recently and seeing all of this weekend’s antics with the G7 and the Euros with people celebrating in different capacities but meanwhile we’re being told we can’t celebrate in a secure capacity – they haven’t really considered us. If you’re doing lateral flow tests for sporting events, why not do that for weddings?” - Emma Ward, 30, a project manager who lives in Newcastle, who has had to postpone her wedding three times due to coronavirus restrictions.

“I wonder have the police investigated Arlene Foster over this breaking of the law, by singing in public? Are they going to arrest Arlene Foster? I very much doubt it” - Sir Van Morrison, whose planned Belfast concerts were cancelled because live music is still not permitted under Covid restrictions, after the former first minister sang a verse of That’s Life by Frank Sinatra at her last public engagement. “Those scenes we’ve also seen where people have taken to actually vandalise some of the resuscitation equipment that is placed publicly, I would say to them: You’re a shame and a disgrace. We’ve seen very clearly over the weekend how vital those pieces of equipment are” - Northern Ireland’s Health Minister Robin Swann after vandals trashed a defibrillator at Buxted FC in East Sussex just hours after the cardiac arrest of Danish footballer Christian Eriksen during his side’s Euro 2020 game against Finland.
