That's a lot of people. They are carrying EU flags. I hope they hold another vote and can brexit. I saw a sign that said "Bin Brexit".

We need to be out marching like that regularly.

the time that I was watching the BBC feed they were showing the large crowd from a drone or something and the few close shots I saw were all anti-brexit marchers. I got drowsy and went back to bed for a while.

If this vote on the Letwin amendment passes, BoJo will have to request a Brexit extension. DUP are voting against it.
I expect Bojo to be humiliated yet again.
