Around 400 protesters made up of British expatriates living in Europe, some of whom travelled from Italy and France, and EU citizens residing in the UK have gathered in Hyde Park to call for the right to vote in a final referendum.

The group have united under the umbrella group the Five Million, which refers to the number of EU citizens in Britain and UK citizens residing in the EU.

Protesters chanted “we are the three million” in English, Spanish, Italian, French and German. They also called for the “Brexit bus to crash”

Kalba Meadows, a coordinator of Remain in France Together and a member of the British in Europe’s steering committee, travelled from French Pyrenees to join the march.

“I am here for two reasons: I’m here to show how strong we are as a group and celebrate everything we’ve done together over the last two years,” she said.



“I am here because we’ve been disenfranchised from the referendum. I am here to demand that the people most affected by Brexit actually have a say in what happens.”



Axel Antoni, 44, a spokesperson for the campaign group 3 Million, said: “It’s a very specific demand: we want a final say for all. the UK is our home. We are part of it. EU citizens didn’t even have a vote last time, we didn’t have a voice last time.”
