This is double standards and hypocrisy of a gold standard.

Covid: Clashes as police shut down protest over new rules
Quote:
The Met Police said the protest was being shut down because the crowd was not social distancing.
Thousands had gathered in central London to protest against the latest government rules, with very few wearing masks.
Protests are exempt from the rule-of-six restrictions, but demonstrators must social distance; organisers must also submit a risk assessment.

Each UK nation is advising people to stay 2m (6ft) away from anyone they don't live with. However, there are some differences:- In England, if you can't stay 2m away, you can stay "1m plus" apart. The "plus" means doing something else to limit possible exposure - like wearing a face covering

So indeed it is a case of different time, different rules.
