Thousands march in London to demand referendum on Brexit deal

Thousands of people are marching through the streets of London to demand a referendum on the terms of Brexit.

Organisers of the People’s Vote march have estimated in excess of 100,000 people will be attending the rally in central London.

The start of the march was delayed from noon to 1pm, with demonstrators held on Pall Mall ahead of a march to Parliament Square for a rally outside the Palace of Westminster.

The IT consultant went on: “I’m married to a French wife, I have two children who are dual national, and we live in Holland and are caught up in this administrative mess.

“I have lived and worked across Europe, it’s home.”

He added he thought a second referendum was “almost inevitable” as “demographically, younger people are in favour, they want jobs, they don’t want to sing Elgar”.
