A massive march demanding a final say on Brexit is set to take place on October 19 at the same time as MPs meet for a historic parliamentary session.. Here’s your guide to the protest – so that you can let them know what you think.
The Let Us Be Heard march, organised by the People’s Vote campaign, culminates a summer and autumn of nationwide campaigning.
Taking place just 12 days before we are currently scheduled to leave the EU, the march aims to send a loud and clear message against Boris Johnson’s scorched-earth Brexit policy.
