Saturday 19th October 2019 - London - if you're not on march, sign the letter

Park Lane to Parliament Square, London. 12pm, Saturday 19th October 2019 - London



'We will assemble on Park Lane, in London, on Saturday 19th October at 12 noon. We will then march through the heart of London to Parliament Square, where we will hear speeches from leading cross party politicians and celebrity voices who support a People?s Vote.'



'Why are we marching?


The march from Park Lane to Parliament will deliver a message loud and clear to the Government and MPs that they should trust the people, not Boris Johnson, to solve the Brexit crisis.


It follows a series of packed ?Let Us Be Heard? rallies in towns and cities across the UK this summer where people from all walks of life have demanded the right to a final say on Brexit.


This Brexit crisis has now come down to a simple question about whether we live in a democracy: can we allow Boris Johnson to force No Deal - or another vicious form of Brexit - on our country, without all of us having our voice heard?


The only way to break the deadlock in Parliament, legitimise the outcome and allow us all to talk about something else, is to give the people the final say.


Let Us Be Heard.'






'Saturday 19th October 2019 - London


PEOPLE'S VOTE MARCH - LET US BE HEARD


To avoid major disruption to Great Ormond Street Hospital's huge annual fundraiser we had to move our March to October 19.


This summer, the British people have the chance to force our way back into the final decision on Brexit. We are going on the offensive, with rallies in 15 towns and cities across the country, culminating with an enormous, historic march in London on October 19. Because it is now clear that this is a crisis that cannot be settled by a new prime minister or a deadlocked parliament. It can only be settled by us, the people.


Save the date. And let?s save the country.'

It happened on 23rd June 2016.


Are you saying that you don't support democracy and actually want a different outcome, otherwise called another referendum ,because the result of the first referendum can't be stomached? And just remind me how much Parliament has taken notice of you so far, none.

Country were told they could have a great, easy deal


I?m willing to believe you couldn?t give a shit and just want no deal uncleglen. But don?t you dare suggest it?s what most of the country voted for because that is straight up bullshit and even you know that

This paralysis of government won't be until Oct31 - It'll be for years and years whilst we talk/don't talk to the EU, accept/don't accept a WA/FTA, Negotiate with Trumps people and then possibly find Biden in charge etc etc.

Silly billy. If I remember soylent Green was based in a dystopian New York. If Remainers think they?ll grow two heads and have teeth like Bugs Bunny if they eat chlorinated chicken I cannot see the dictators of the EU allowing Soylent Green, no matter how cannibalistic your tendencies cat.

Leavers man


No one is complaining about chlorinated chicken because it will mutate us


It?s because the chlorine is required in USA because welfare standards for animals and workers are so bad. What you are saying is you don?t give a shit about either

Although food poisoning rates are much higher over there too

Fully support these people"s right to march for whatever they believe...but perhaps improve the slogan choice? :)


LET US BE HEARD????


This group of remainers haven't shut-up in 3 years, I don't think being heard is the problem! Maybe adjust message or demands slightly? as 'another' march demanding the same things seems unlikely to yield any different results from the previous 6 marches with the exact same message.

You remind me of Norman Tebbit talking about gay people in the 1980s.

And you remind me of someone unable to accept a crtical, but constructive, comment (whats wrong with suggesting a different approach to achieve the same goals?) without resorting to dog whistle association with something like homophobia. Grow up my friend.

Sorry you won't shut me up - I'll actually make an attempt to be even remainier and louder the more I'm told to shut up.

Good for you. If you actually read my comment as its written, instead of just assuming that in your wisdom you know what I 'really meant', then you'll find I have never said you should shut-up. I wish you the best of luck in your loudness.

Wow, you must have a PhD in 'Strawman theory'. 3 times now you've managed to make a tangential comment to highlight your 'perception' of the injustice of my comments. Rather than actually take as read the comments being made. I'm out. For the second time, best of luck.

to be fair to 'you' you 'wasn't' asked a question with a proper answer in 2016 - leave doesn't mean leave as we can now clearly see


so unless you're saying in 2016 52% voted for the deal that Boris proposes today (they couldn't have) or that 52% really didn't care about any details (which seems clearly to be nonsense) then asking 'is this what you want?' is the only logical step


to stick to a 'brexit means brexit' mantra just makes people look stupid

    • A repetitive tried and tested cycle that seems to be slowing down in London thankfully. Brixton was the start. Councils consciously and purposely let an area decline until that area is next on the list for social and ethnic cleansing and ultimately gentrification. In come the first wave of arty/ creatives to squat and house share. A few coffee shops and cool but inexpensive cafe/ bars and art spaces open up. The crackheads, dealers and other assorted criminals who were once left to operate openly and brazenly to sell, shop lift, mug, beg, purchase,  publicly consume on decent folks doorsteps, stairwells,in bin sheds and without fear of the law begin to be targeted, rounded up and moved on. A few more jaunty and sustainable coffee shops/ bars appear . The Guardian and other facilitators in the media jump on the bandwagon, first claims of vibrancy are rolled out. Next step a few cool retro clothing shops pop up selling ' reclaimed Levi's for more than they originally cost and ten times the price of what the recently departed charity shop charged. Foxtons open a branch and the arty types and first wavers/ drivers have there first moan about there initially paltry rents going up. The guardian do a generic lets move to Brixton, Dalston, Hackney, Deptford, Walthamstow type double pager. Interview a graphic designer or two who have just bought a former crack den on the manor for next to peanuts. They will later bemoan the next wave who have more money than them. Cool, edgy and vibrant are now the buzzword bingo must use lingo. Few more coffee shops ( how original ) Pop up everything,. Organic and sour dough move in. The night time economy starts to thrive, more cool bars and eateries open. More squats and the last crack house that was once one of many are cleared out. Second wave is around the corner.   All of a sudden there's a visible police presence again and the streets are safe for fun seekers with plenty of disposable cash to chuck about on a dose of vibrancy with added coolness. By this stage even the locally brewed beer is organic. There's queues outside the newly arrived organic, sourdough, artisan and sustainable bakers. Instagram has Brixton trending. The greasy spoon of thirty year has gone cause the lease is up and the landlord has hiked the rents up by 60/70%. Followed by small family run independents that served the community  for decades and more.  The local characters, activists, eccentrics are getting less and less. There's a new show in town for a week or two and until the next brand arrives. Brewdog move in. Former job centres are converted into bars but peak edginess means it's still called the job centre. Followed by a couple more chain eateries. The resident DJ'S and music venues are replaced by another generic brand boasting guest chefs. The Guardian lifestyle section is now on it's fifth or sixth orgasm. Turn a few pages and hypocrisy is rampant with articles on the evils of gentrification, foxtons, capitalism, social cleansing and unaffordable housing. The middle classes continue to arrive in there droves to buy into the vibrancy and multiculturalism supposedly on offer. There isn't much multiculturalism going on at the packed latest place to eat, drink and fart. The multiculturalism on show comes in the form of bar staff, doorman and cheap as chips uber drivers and delivery workers. Rice and peas, jerk everything, red stripe at six quid a can from some hipster haunt that is currently flavour of the month and the place to be seen. The first wavers are now blaming the latest hedge funded brand that's pulled into town for driving gentrification and there soon to be hastened departure to be first wavers again somewhere else. Less cool but up and coming here we come. Covid has certainly helped/ been a factor in slowing down the process of gentrification. I also think it may be the driver for almost putting a stop to it. Remote working, less need to move to London to be near an office, less disposable cash, sky high rents, worthless degrees that relied on that disposable cash , different priorities, knife and gang crime and a large dose of much needed realism has put a huge spanner in the works for the shitty process and cycle that is/ was the gentrification and social cleansing of working class London. Manchester and Liverpool is next on the list for the planners. Thankfully.
    • Can you just queue up to withdraw cash or are other transactions like stamp purchasing required?  Do M&S do cash back?
    • Or don't stop using cash. Stop using your phone or even your watch as a banknote. At the same time avoid the risk of having your card cloned at cash points, by hand held card readers, oyster readers and point-of sale terminals to name a few. God only knows how much damage we're doing to the planet because all the above must require a hell of a lot of resources and juice from the grid. It won't happen though. I know of quite a few people who deem carrying cash about as a pain/ chore. But not a big lump of plastic with a screen and full of personal information that can be easily gleamed. I feel the same about carrying a phone about so i don't most of the time. I'll be in the minority but certainly don't see or treat a phone as a necessity.  You can't get a banknote out of your sky rocket with a phone in your hand. It's become a source of dopamine for many. It's an addiction for many. They're an easy target for thieves. They're a godsend to cyber fraudsters who are stealing billions and are doing so without the need of cash points.
