The EU flags, glitter berets and bad taste posters are out in full force today as the People’s Vote march hits London. Among the big names expected to attend are Alastair Campbell (still trying to work out what makes this march different to the anti-Iraq one in terms of effectiveness) while Philip Lee – the one time junior minister – may join later. As for Hugh Grant, the pro-EU Notting Hill actor has unfortunately had to send his apologies.
Grant is currently in France – but has promised to perform a solitary march from the French village he is holidaying in:
Very sorry not to be in UK for #PeoplesVoteMarch. Will march by myself alone around French village chanting.

That will show them.
