The northern Irish musician, Van Morrison, is preparing to release three songs, in which he criticizes the home quarantine imposed at the height of the first wave of the "Covid-19" pandemic, considering it to be against freedom, as announced, Friday, on his website.

The author of the songs "Gloria" and "Brown Eyed Girl" accused the scholars of "inventing twisted facts" to justify imposing "slavery" on people, according to paragraphs of his three songs reported by British media.

Morrison (75 years) considered, in one of the songs, that "the new normal is not normal," and added: "We were born to be free."

And in "No More Lockdown" (No Stone Any More), Morrison sang, "No more borderline from the government, and" No more fascist tyrants disturb our peace. "

It is expected that the first song will be released, followed by the other two, with a difference of two weeks between one and the other.

"It is a matter of freedom of choice, and I think people should have the right to think for themselves," Morrison said in a statement posted on his website.

Morrison renewed his call to open the concert halls, with full capacity.

The British Minister of Health, Matt Hancock, announced yesterday morning that imposing a new stone in Britain would be the "last line of defense", as the government prefers to adopt local quarantine in certain areas.

Britain is the European country most affected by the pandemic, with the number of deaths reaching 41 thousand, and is currently witnessing an accelerating increase in the number of injuries.
