And a million on the people's vote march. Is that a million according to the Police? Or the Home Office? Or is it a million according to the protest organisers? According to the pro-Government, anti-Brexit TV propaganda channel, the BBC, which makes Radio Moscow and Al-Jazeera look impartial, the figures are "into the hundreds of thousands". <iframe width="26.09999999999991" height="4.199999999999989" style="position: absolute; width: 26.09999999999991px; height: 4.199999999999989px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none;left: 15px; top: -5px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_66538479" scrolling="no"></iframe> <iframe width="26.09999999999991" height="4.199999999999989" style="position: absolute; width: 26.1px; height: 4.2px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 1242px; top: -5px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_53059694" scrolling="no"></iframe> <iframe width="26.09999999999991" height="4.199999999999989" style="position: absolute; width: 26.1px; height: 4.2px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 15px; top: 149px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_7664278" scrolling="no"></iframe> <iframe width="26.09999999999991" height="4.199999999999989" style="position: absolute; width: 26.1px; height: 4.2px; z-index: -9999; border-style: none; left: 1242px; top: 149px;" id="MoatPxIOPT0_45346866" scrolling="no"></iframe> I'm not quite sure how many hundreds of thousands they mean, but presumably not ten. Which is how many it would take to make a million.

Jim, Why would pro leave supporters march or demonstrate ? We won the vote, there is nothing to protest about there .... the only real anger that is growing is against the political elite who aren't fulfilling their promises.
If the remainers aided and abetted by those anti democratic trough snufflers, our so called parliament, manage to overturn the expressed will of the majority of voters to leave the EU .....Then I think the trouble will really start and I think it could be very bad.

4,513,187 And a million on the people's vote march. How many turned up to support Nasty Nige? Have to admit, you have a point. You'd think the 'Celtic Warriors' would have swept down from the North of Scotland to annihilate any Remainers in their path with their claymores. But for now, sauna awaits, and The Kingsman (The Secret Service) is on the idiot lantern at 9pm, and I feel like watching a bit of that before I dive into the realms of unconsciousness and driving buses in my dreams (I can't help it, it's ingrained! I do hope it goes away when I've retired). Keep up on the back row, the Celtic Warriors all voted remain and want their independence.

Meanwhile there is an argument going on about how many attended Farage's march today. Somewhere between 150 and 250 people I believe.
Any news on the 'go slow' campaign or did that get banned?
"The former Ukip leader joined the March to Leave in Linby, Nottinghamshire, telling the tiny crowd of supporters in the car park of the Horse and Groom pub that Theresa May had reduced the nation “to a state of humiliation”. The march started in Sunderland a week ago and organisers hope to arrive in London on the original Brexit day of March 29. It has been marked by small numbers, with Farage himself only lasting around an hour and a half before going to the pub. Speaking from the top of an open-top bus, Farage said those gathering for the People’s Vote march in London were not the majority, before leading the crowds through the village. He said: “What has happened this week is not only a national humiliation but it is an outright betrayal, because Mrs May now tells us we’re not leaving next Friday despite telling us over a hundred times that we would be, despite putting a piece of law in place supported by 500 MPs. “So there is something going on here that I believe to be one of the saddest chapters in the history of our nation and we will not take this lying down.” Farage said he believed that, if there was another referendum, Leave would win by an even bigger margin." www.theneweuropean.co.uk/top-stories/peoples-vote-march-does-not-represent-the-majority-nigel-farage-tells-200-people-1-5954726

I suspect the problem here John is that most of the protesting remainers can’t see the long reaching damage the EU is doing to democracy. I saw a banner held up by a child on that protest (picture) which basically said that we shouldn’t mess with their future by leaving the EU. This seemed odd to me as surely the protest was about a second referendum, not remain!? Can’t they see that caving into the EU dictatorship could result in children losing the right to vote in the future? Do the children understand the long reaching consequences of the banners they are asked to hold up? Does Jim?

Seems like they've all given up on him. What relevance does he have to anyone these days. Just a rentagob.

Jim has still never answered (properly) why he wishes the UK to stay within the EU. He has just copied and pasted some old badly-written nonsense so far. If he won't say what is going through his mind, who else can say?
I have a vague idea of what I'd like to see, what the UK should be should be striving for, but as the make-up of the population is changing more and more, who can really say any more about what the future of the UK should be? You have to have it on paper and state your reasons. Voting/Democracy was one straw to clutch at in the hope of swinging things to the way you want, but we now see that that opportunity is being ignored. Those with money are doing all the behind-the-scenes scheming, and they have the Police and Army as their own personal private security guards.
As most of the train companies in the UK are operated by the German government / Deutsche Bahn, you can bet they made a bumper profit out of all those travelling to London to go on that march! Why are Britain's trains not being run by the British?

Rather than splitting into tiny factions, building walls (metaphorical in Britains case) and being divisive and isolationist.

Rather than splitting into tiny factions, building walls (metaphorical in Britains case) and being divisive and isolationist. Everyone wants a better world but do you really trust those who are trying to run it? Or the EU even? I really don’t believe that humans have evolved enough morally to trust a handful of people to run a state as large as the EU. Have you not read some of the stuff Juncker has said? He has utter contempt for democracy. Do the research Jim before spouting off. The world is only a better place because millions of people died fighting against dictatorship and for democracy. Yet so many people like you can’t see the damage they are potentially doing to our children’s future. I’ve said this before, I’m all for a united Europe, even a united World, but do you really think mankind has developed morally enough to be ruled by a handful of people? Do you want to be ruled by people driven by money and greed? Do you want our children to have a say in their future?

ALL. 62%/38% on your logoc that's not even half of the population. You cant have it both ways. Even though Scotland was unanimous they had an even lower turnout than us. Glasgow only had a 56% turn out. They aren't that bothered. If the remaining voters across the UK gave a shit they would have turned up and voted.
