Momentum for rejoin is ‘unstoppable’, campaigners say ahead of national march

Momentum for rejoining the European Union is “unstoppable”, campaigners have said ahead of the second National Rejoin March on 23rd September in London.

Tens of thousands of people are expected to be part of the rally starting in Hyde Park at Noon before marching towards Parliament Square.

Since the first rescheduled rejoin march in October 2022, demand to rejoin the EU has increased significantly with the most recent ITV youth tracker polling saying 86 per cent of young people aged 18-25 would vote to rejoin with overall national support across all ages is at over 60 per cent.

Peter Corr, the co-founder and leader of the NRM, said: “We are urging all who want to rejoin, to attend the second march and rally in London on September 2023.

“It’s time to turn polling support into feet on the ground. It’s no longer good enough to sit at home moaning about what’s happening to our country, let’s do something about it”.

The lineup of confirmed speakers includes Guy Verhofstadt MEP who will say there is an absolute need for the UK to rejoin the EU, while Terry Reintke MEP will add that the growing citizen’s movement for rejoin is being followed very closely in Brussels.

Gina Miller, the leader of the True and Fair Party, is also set to speak.

Other speakers include Femi Oluwole, Mike Galsworthy, Steve Bray, Liz Webster, Madeleina Kay and Professor AC Grayling.
