Put it to the People:
Parliament is in a logjam. We need things to change. The only sensible way out is for Parliament to put the final decision on Brexit back to the People.
The People's Vote campaign is on the march again - on Saturday 23rd March in London.
Last October around 700,000 people came. This time it could be even bigger.
Maybe Parliament will have backed a People's Vote by then, in which case this becomes the start of the campaign to stay in the EU; if not this is the last and best chance to show the strength and depth of public opposition to the course recommended by Theresa May and her government, and it is not too late for Parliament to force a change.
Caroline Lucas MP has said "The 23rd of March is likely to be High Noon for Brexit - when anyone who cares about the future, anyone who feels betrayed by broken promises in the last referendum, anyone who wants to prevent years more of this chaos needs to make their voice heard".
North East for Europe urges anyone who agrees to join us in London if at all possible.
