And let's reduce last Saturday's to the lowest suggested figure of 400k.
So a quarter as many.
So how does Press coverage of the two events compare?

Farage's march also makes the central feature of the 2nd inside spread. Picture of an attractive woman and a fairly sympathetic colour piece by @estheraddley

Last Monday, like the Guardian, it made the march the nub of its 2nd inside spread. Also like the Guardian, there was no p1 mention

Last Monday its only mention of the march was coupled with the 5m petition (remember that?) on an inside spread.

Yet when a fraction of that number turn out, they get full coverage.
Is this reflecting or shaping readers' views?
Take a look at those latest opinion polls.
Have a nice day.
