Today we joined other groups from Berkshire & the rest of Britain (as well as some from further afield) for the #FinalSayForAll march.
It was brilliant - the weather was good, the atmosphere was amazing, the speeches at the end were memorable.

Assembling at the start of the march.
A lot of time must have gone into making this pub sign placard.

New #hustingsthread.

Having looked at the opening remarks I have picked out highlights and links to some of the questions covered in our excellent #hustings last Saturday. #EUelections2019 #PeoplesVote
โ€œWhat Areas of Policy are better coordinated at EU level rather than National Level?โ€

Julie Ward of @uklabour views areas of refugee policy and sharing responsibility for them and also online safety and security, holding the platforms to account as crucial work for the EU.
Link to answers from all candidates to this question.

Question 1 What areas of of Policy are better coordinated at EU level rather than national leve?

My thread on how to beat Leavers (sorry!)
1/ I was a Leave voter. I have become a #Remainernow, but there is one key piece of the Brexiteer psyche I donโ€™t feel is being engaged with by any of the Remain parties. You see, every Brexiteer is a hero.
2/ Itโ€™s a wonderful feeling โ€“ a sincere belief that you are doing the right thing, and all obstacles and sacrifices are actually proof that you are on the right track. The reaction to โ€œProject Fearโ€ is a case in point; clearly Remainers were cowards.
3/ In fact, it doesnโ€™t matter if every prediction comes true to them โ€“ it just highlights the length they are willing to go to succeed in their quest; how heroic they are. The more sacrifice, the more it must be worth it in the end. It gives a sense of empowerment that emboldens.

1/ war paint on & we're ready to #EURockNRoll ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง๐Ÿ‘Š

Protesting outside Parliament today over the #MeaninglessVote

Your deal is dead @theresa_may! Plan B is Plan A - and it's not good enough for #Britain!

It's time for the people to demand a #FinalSay on this mess
#StopBrexit
2/ there appears to be massive @UKIP and @LeaveMnsLeave #WTO rules protest and march occurring.

Not enough Remainers on the ground to counter & the atmosphere is very toxic.

I was immediately called every name under the sun and told I am a disgrace. ๐Ÿ™„
3/ I had to take a photo of this dude.... I'll give it to him - his costume is great! ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜‚ #LeaveMeansLeave

3/ I've been called a lot of names. Had a horn blasted right in my ear. ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ‘‚๐Ÿ“ฏ A lot of complaints about the #BollockstoBrexitBus ... My response "If Michael Gove & John Bercow can use Bollocks (in parliament) - so can we! It's a fine Anglo Saxon word that means "nonsense"! ๐Ÿ˜

Arrived at #Wetherspoons in MCR. Tim Martin arrives 10 mins late & tells us "he is going to give us a talk". I thought this was supposed to be a #Brexit debate? ๐Ÿค” "Metropolitan elites are pushing for a deal we don't need & if we crash out on #NoDeal we will avoid paying ยฃ39bn"
I just had to point out to Tim that it is our own government who hasn't been implementing EU laws on controlling migration and hasn't properly documented #EUcitizens living in the UK, as they do in other EU countries.
He just admitted he needs to go back and "check his books." ๐Ÿ™„
This woman quite rightly pointing out that if we don't pay the ยฃ39bn financial obligation... then who else is going to pay @Nigel_Farage's pension? ๐Ÿค” Tim says his research hasn't led him to any answers.

1/ So despite the check-in staff at MCR airport being very entertained by the #BollockstoBrexit stickers on my passport, my case got pulled out at security and I was ordered to remove them because they are "offensive"๐Ÿค” (Personally I think #Brexitbis more offensive than bollocks)
2/ I objected pointing out that "bollocks" had been determined not to be offensive in a court of law. The member of staff didn't believe, so I told her to look up the Sex Pistols album "never mind the Bollocks". She told me she "wasn't a sex pistols fan"๐Ÿ™„ completely irrelevant.
3/ I told her there was no legal requirement to remove the stickers and she was impeding on my freedom of speech. She threatened to call airport police to deal with the situation & accused me of wasting security staff time. I told her she was the one making unnecessary demands.
