With just over a week to go, our politics and media now seem to be obsessed with the blame game: are MPs or the PM most at fault for the mess of Brexit?

Frankly, now is not the time for all that. We are eight days from crashing out of Europe. We need a solution, and fast, not a squabble over who is responsible for this dismal mess we find ourselves in.

Amid all this chaos, there is still one clear way out of this: a Final Say referendum would let the people settle the issue. If they want May’s Brexit deal, they can vote for it; if not, they can make their views clear.

One million people signed our petition calling for a Final Say referendum and delivered it to No 10. Now parliament’s own website has crashed because so many people are signing another petition to revoke Article 50. But still Theresa May wants to tell us what she thinks the will of the people is, based on an election held three years ago, during which the law on political campaigning was broken and there was evidence of overseas interference, and in which nobody was warned that a vote to Leave could land us right where we are now.

So how can we make our voices heard? Join us on the march this Saturday! It starts at noon on Park Lane in London, and ends in Westminster. Click here to find out how to get there, and to sign up to take part.

People from across the UK are standing together to make their message heard. Are you standing with us? If so I’ll see you there.
