LONDON, United Kingdom – Anti-Brexit demonstrators took to the streets of London once again today to protest against the British public’s decision to leave the European Union (EU).

The protest, which was much smaller than previous anti-Brexit demonstrations, was led by comedian Eddie Izzard and included people dressed in a wide variety of costumes, often with unusual messages.

Demonstrators called on the government to overturn the referendum result, and expressed their love for the European Union, to a background of pop music

One group of demonstrators told Breitbart London how Brexit was like the killing of Harambe, the Cincinnati gorilla, because as his life was taken away without his choice, so they have been taken out of the EU against their will.

The protest was largely peaceful, although a small counter-demonstration by Brexit supporters aroused a large amount of anger among crowd, leading to chants of “racist scum” as well as one person shouting “you’ll be dead soon anyway” at an older man.

Eddie Izzard also got into a spot of bother when an unknown man attempted to steal his pink beret. The comedian gave chase in high heels before the thief was wrestled to the ground.

Because when you’re a child Article 50 is literally the most pressing thing on your mind

Eddie Izzard looks up

Propaganda rag

That’s kind of what it means

Nothing more magic than an unelected commission

London’s white middle-class liberals unite

Poor thing

Someone call the RSPCA

It was almost like a giant North London dog walking event

Not for much longer…

No political gathering is complete without him

Nothing says liberty more than an unaccountable elite

Geddit?

Turnout was much lower than previous protests

Don’t go breaking my heart

Peter Tatchell joins Izzard

No comment

Huh?

They were not quite big enough to block the whole road

It’s what he would have wanted

Sensible political debate

Attempts to create a giant EU flag were not entirely successful

The horror of Brexit

No idea

What would he make of it all?

Something vaguely sinister about this

The EU love is just too much for some people

Nowadays they can almost fit all their MPs in there
