Senior Conservative MP Sir Iain Duncan Smith has condemned as police going mad with \u201cunlimited power\u201d, after reports that a police officer told two young children playing in a park to go home and play in their gardens, even though they lived in an apartment.<\/p>\n

Media reported<\/a>\u00a0this week that a police officer approached brothers Wren, eight, and six-year-old Bo late last month as they were taking pictures of their freshly-made snowman in a London park, telling the youngsters to go home and play there.<\/p>\n

Campaign group Play Outside said that this was an oft-repeated scenario, exasperated by the guidelines in England that said that while adults may meet in pairs for exercise, children must not play with each other if they are not part of their family, reported<\/a> the i<\/em> newspaper.<\/p>\n

Brexiteer and member of the lockdown-sceptic Covid Recovery Group (CRG) Steve Baker condemned the overzealous police officer, saying<\/a>: \u201cThis unabashed vehemence in the expression of state power beyond the limits of the law would be comical if it were not for real. As the government succeeds in vaccinating vulnerable, incidents like this only underscore the need to reclaim our lives once and for all.\u201d<\/p>\n

The government said<\/a> that while children may play in playgrounds, they are not allowed to socialise, a statement they were forced to make after the Cabinet Office appeared to imply that only children without places to play at home were allowed to use parks.<\/p>\n

Sir Iain Duncan Smith, former Conservative leader, responds to the story two children were sent home from a playground by officials for breaching Covid laws: "This is what happens to people when they are given almost unlimited power." @JuliaHB1<\/a> | @MPIainDS<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/IVUAZb2wo0<\/a><\/p>\n
