With an uncertain future regarding Britain leaving the European Union, the Put it to the People demonstration took place last Saturday March 23 in Central London.

Around one million people marched through the streets, meeting up in London’s Park Lane at midday and ending at Parliament Square.

Sadiq Khan, Mayor of London, was amongst several key speakers. He said: "No matter how you voted in the referendum, no matter what political party you support, we can all agree that Brexit has been a complete and utter mess."

The crowds were in high spirit and waved colourful banners, creating a party atmosphere despite the seriousness of the message being conveyed.

Amongst the throng, a number of young people, too young to have voted in 2016, put forward some constructive arguments as to why they thought there should be a further referendum. 

Nicholas Chadwick, one of the demonstrators, who has been totally committed to this cause, said: "In the biggest mass demonstration of popular outrage since Iraq, it was wonderful to see so many young people and families with small children and even dogs taking to the streets to defend their country against the threat of an unstable and insecure future and doing so in a peaceful and good-humoured way.”

Although a petition set up to revoke Article 50 and remain in the EU, has now reached over 5.5 million, for now the future seems uncertain as people wait to see what develops next.
