1/ oops accidentally bumped into the #Yellowvest #EDL protest in #Westminster 🤨 it seems they recognise me ... Already been called a liar... Got my #24ReasonstoRemain facts

2/ There's some really fabulous arguments... And said with such conviction! These guys are pro! 😂 #StopBrexit #YellowVestsUK

3/ I've been called a lot of names. Had a horn blasted right in my ear. 🙄👂📯 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"! 😁

4/ they called me a fascist, a complicit racist and then asked me if I was @Anna_Soubry's daughter 🙄 #YellowVestUK #YellowVest #StopBrexit

5/ this woman finds Bollocks "very, very offensive." 🤔 I told her I find #Brexit offensive. One of the #YellowVestsUk then asks a policeman if he can use the word, policeman replies "depends on the context" 😂 (top officer for telling the guy to stop thumping my shoulder too!)

6/ this is the consumption of police resources for a protest of, at the very most a few hundred people. 🤨 #YellowVestUK #YellowVest #YellowVestUK thanks must be said to @metpoliceuk for keeping us safe and facilitating democratic protest.

7/ here they are chanting "Anna Soubry she's a liar, she's a liar."
#YellowVestsUk
Slightly better than "Nazi" but still aggressive, victimising, bullying behaviour. An MP serving the public does not deserve this abuse.

8/ I often wonder why so many of the #YellowVestsUK who are supposedly participating in a democratic protest feel the need to conceal their faces? 🤔 #YellowVest #Westminster

9/ I gave these #YellowVestsUk my #24ReasonstoRemain booklet.

I'm told that I've been brainwashed when I explain that no laws can be passed without approval from democratically elected MEPs.

Thanks to @JasonJHunter for rescuing me!

10/ @JasonJHunter - top bloke - drags me out of the fray and into a pub that was under lock down because of the #YellowVest protest. #3Blokesinapub #YellowVestsUk #BollockstoBrexit
