Lockdown opponent stands in election );
A CAFE owner who opposes the coronavirus lockdown is standing for election.
Vivienne Lee is competing in the Henley division of Oxfordshire County Council for a new party called Freedom Alliance.
Ms Lee, who owns the Chocolate Café in Thames Side, Henley, is one of four people challenging for the seat at the council elections on Thursday, May 6.
She said: “The decision to stand is a direct result of the last 10 months, which have been very tough due to lockdown and covid rules.
“The lockdown has created such big disruption in Henley. This town relies so much on tourism and on its businesses people come to Henley for the regatta and for various festivals and all of that was devastated last year and the guidelines were sometimes very vague.
