Brighton & Hove Lib Dems Working to re-connect with Europe.
NATIONAL REJOIN MARCH III
SATURDAY 28TH SEPTEMBER 2024 CENTRAL LONDON
This will be the third National Rejoin March. As with the Stop Brexit marches, support grows each time and the marches get bigger and bigger. Will you join the march this year?
There will be a group of pro-EU supporters from Brighton & Hove Lib Dems, plus members of Brighton & Hove For EU, going to the march on Saturday. If you would like to join us, we will be catching the 11:09 Victoria train from Brighton station. We will be in the second coach from the front. Look out for EU flags and berets!
The route of the march is shown. Everyone will meet up outside of the Hilton Hotel on Park Lane. The march will start at 1pm. We will march to Parliament Square for the rally which will start at 3pm and finish at 4:30pm. There will be many excellent speakers to hear from, including Mike Galsworthy, Chair of the European Movement, Gina Miller, Femi Oluwole, Steve Bray, Peter Stefanovic, and many more.
Let's Re-Connect with Europe
Brexit is costing the UK Economy £100 Billion a Year in Lost Growth.
A report from Bloomberg shows that the UK is currently suffering £100 billion a year in lost growth with the pro-Brexit voting areas suffering the worst. What has happened to all that world beating growth that Johnson, the Tories and the pro-Brexiteers promised? Or do we have to wait for 50 years as Rees-Mogg forecast for the promised benefits to show through? The disaster that was Brexit carries on delivering. We need to re-connect with the EU in a meaningful way not through vague promises of world beating trade deals.
What has Brexit delivered?
- A £6 billion increase in our food bills.
- A 4% reduction in our trade with Europe.
- A trade deal with Australia that favours the Australians and costs our farmers.
- Worker shortages throughout the NHS, Social Services, the Service sector and farming.
- Rotting fruit and vegetables in our farmers' fields.
- Queues to get across the channel and in airports both here and in Europe.
- More red tape.
- The list goes on
The Tories voted for it, Labour sat on their hands and did nothing to stop it.
Brexiteers promised everything but have delivered nothing! It's time we called them to account and worked to re-connect with the people of Europe

He identifies, and we think correctly, that one of the prime architects to have contributed to the breaking of Britain was Farage himself with his Brexit campaign. No matter what Farage claims he can never divorce himself from the fact that he has spent years damaging the image of Britain in the UK itself and on the world stage
