HUNDREDS of people have gathered outside Belfast City Hall to take part in an anti-vaccine demonstration.

Men and women, many of whom were carrying placards and posters, came together yesterday.

Some of those gathered held posters which read: "No apartheid. No vax mandates" while another read: "My body. My choice. Shouldn't mean less freedom".

The gathering led to roads in the area being closed.

Yesterday's protest is the latest in a series of such demonstrations.
