Thousands of Britons march through London to protest against Brexit vote
UK: Thousands
of British protesters marched through central London on Saturday to
protest against
last week's vote to leave the European Union. Among the protesters were
young adults, many of whom were wrapped in EU flags while
others waved banners bearing slogans such as "I'm with EU" and
"Wrexit".
The protesters were heard chanting, "What do we want to do? Stay in the EU," as they marched towards the Westminster political district.
Organizer of the rally Kieran MacDermott said:
The protesters were heard chanting, "What do we want to do? Stay in the EU," as they marched towards the Westminster political district.
"I was genuinely stunned on the morning after the vote," said one protester Nathaniel Samson, 25, from Hertfordshire, north of London.
"I feel deeply uncertain about my future," he added. "I'm on the march to voice my discontentment. I am accepting the result, but it's to show that we won't accept it quietly."An Italian Pamela Zoni, 34, who has lived in Britain for six years, said she was very upset by the result and having a rethink about taking British citizenship.
"I would like a second referendum," she said. "The first campaign was based on lies, and the margin was so tight: it was not a fair result."52 per cent of Britons have voted for Britain to leave the EU in last Thursday's referendum.
Organizer of the rally Kieran MacDermott said:
"We can prevent Brexit by refusing to accept the referendum as the final say and take our finger off the self-destruct button."MacDermott added that, the Parliament should have the final say on whether Britain should leave.
