in London - there's a split screen with the Brexit Vote Debate and the climate change protests - I'd love to see close up pictures and numbers

1. Wow!

That's a lot of people. They are carrying EU flags. I hope they hold another vote and can brexit. I saw a sign that said "Bin Brexit".

We need to be out marching like that regularly.

4. You want them to Brexit? Really?

[Clash City Rocker]

7. I think "can Brexit" meant "do away with Brexit"

Although the wording there was a little confusing.

[Scarsdale]

9. Can means trash can in

U.K.

[tavernier]

10. We say "Can It" in Florida, meaning "Throw it in the trash."

[True Blue American]

19. Put it in the round file.

[Clash City Rocker]

11. In the US too

But it also means “is able to.” So it could mean two opposite things.

[groundloop]

27. Personally I'd have said "shit can it".... but yes, I got the point after re-reading

[2naSalit]

31. NO!

I hope they will have a vote to shit-can it. I was trying not swear when I posted that. I am in favor of this march and I hope they stay in the EU.

5. Brexit is a mistake.

Not sure if you meant to say you’re in favor of it.

[2naSalit]

32. I meant they should hold another vote to stay in the EU...nt

[malaise]

6. BBC Chyron just said these are People vote protests

which means these are not just climate change folks.

More here

33. I recall your saying as much earlier...

the time that I was watching the BBC feed they were showing the large crowd from a drone or something and the few close shots I saw were all anti-brexit marchers. I got drowsy and went back to bed for a while.

[malaise]

34. Yep I did say it

but BBC backed me up. I was watching both BBC and hte youtube coverage of the protests

[2naSalit]

35. Ah!

I was glad you made an OP about it, I forgot about the whole thing after pondering the shitshow we have going on here. I got overwhelmed and had to sleep it off!

[malaise]

36. Who would have ever believed that both the US and UK would be facing such chaos

simultaneously.

[triron]

38. Putin.

[malaise]

39. Ha

nailed it

[spike jones]

20. Thanks for the link

[c-rational]

24. Agreed. I am now reading "On Tyranny, 20 Lessons from the 20th Century" by Tom Snyder and that

is one of his recommendations. It is a great read and recommended for all DUers. I heard about it from a spot Rachael Maddow did with the author.

[UniteFightBack]

26. Folks need to start spreading this link around. Recommend. nt

[LittleGirl]

16. One of my girlfriends from the UK

is marching in the Anti-Brexit march to protest the exit to the EU. That's what it's all about.

[malthaussen]

17. Donald Trump's inaugueration was larger. n/t

[malaise]

18. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

If this vote on the Letwin amendment passes, BoJo will have to request a Brexit extension. DUP are voting against it.
I expect Bojo to be humiliated yet again.
322 to 306 - Down goes Bojo!!!

[maryellen99]

21. He's going to break British law and not ask for an extension nt

[malaise]

23. He'll lose in court

Please proceed Bojo - it's that or resign.

[Mc Mike]

22. Rock on, Democracy loving Brits.

Bojo, bozo, potato, potahto. He's got a winning record like Rump.

[bunny planet]

28. erm....

not just a climate change protest.....more like an Exit Brexit protest....
