Yesterday we @RemainerNow were invited to have an active role in the #PeoplesVoteRally in Westminster. Many of the speeches from politicians focused on why many abstainers, those too young to vote or 2016 leavers now want a #PeoplesVote.
This thread looks at #RemainerNow input.

Firstly, @ClaireTromans, who had travelled down from Dudley especially, was invited to give her reasons why she is a #RemainerNow in the intro.
Well done Claire.
Well done Claire.
Second, #RemainerNow @Will_DryOFOC (who has put his Uni career on hold to fight #brexit as a co-founder of @OFOCBrexit) gave a stirring speech about his change of mind.
Top work Will.
Top work Will.
For the final part where #RemainerNow were involved on stage, 4 people were asked questions by @mrjamesob about their shift in opinion. Onto them shortly but here is James's storming introduction to the section.
#RemainerNow @Snoozette1 travelled up from Brighton for the event. She was first up to talk to James about her shift from leave to remain. Well done Carol.
Next up @mrjamesob spoke to @SimRiyat who had come across from East London. Sim gave his story.
Thank you to him. 👏
Thank you to him. 👏
And here is a nice photo of the some of #RemainerNow contingent on stage proudly wearing their t-shirts declaring that "it's ok to change your mind".
Next up @mrjamesob turned to Ayo (who came down from Essex) and heard his story.
Great stuff @mcDarke
Great stuff @mcDarke
And here is a little video of #RemainerNow @mcDarke speaking which was shot from someone else on the stage. 👏
Finally @mrjamesob turned to Andrew (aka @ardendraught) who came across from Ealing in West London, who told everyone why he voted leave but is a #RemainerNow.
Lovely stuff. 👏
Lovely stuff. 👏
It was fantastic that we @RemainerNow were invited to take a part in this as it's vital these voices are heard. We would like to thank @campbellclaret and @peoplesvote_uk for inviting us along and we hope to have many more opportunities in the weeks and months to come.
