AN ANTI-BREXIT bus and a Boris Johnson lookalike visited the seafront to call for a People’s Vote.

The bus was emblazoned with the phrase “b******s to Brexit” and is on a tour of 50 destinations across the UK, Belgium and Ireland, and about 50 people turned up to show their support in Marine Parade, Brighton.

Caroline Brown, chairwoman of the Brighton & Hove Liberal Democrats' EU Campaign Committee, said: “We flung together a general election in two months last year, and the EU are desperate for us to stay, so a People’s Vote seems like the only logical option.

“We have been forced to think about the good things the EU does for us, and we really get a lot from it.

“It has united the country in a weird sort of way, we discovered that other people felt like us and Liberal Democrats like myself have become so close with the Green Party. Caroline Lucas and Labour’s Peter Kyle are campaigning for this.”

“I’m in my sixties and I think it’s outrageous that people my age and older are voting leave because it’s not our future, it’s going to affect our children and grandchildren, and it would be incredibly selfish to do so.”

Fiveways resident Carol Bill voted leave, but said she wants a People’s Vote as she was misinformed.

She said: “I couldn’t decide and didn’t until I was in the voting booth, but afterwards I felt sick and thought, ‘what have I done’?

“We had no information at the time of the first vote, the leave campaign just pulled all the right strings.

“The day after I contacted Caroline Lucas and asked for a second vote because I regretted what I had done, and she replied saying she had received a lot of similar messages.

“Since then, I have been a passionate advocate for the People’s Vote and went up to London on my own in the summer for my first march to support it.”

The bus arrived on Brighton seafront to a cheer from the gathered crowd, who were holding a series of banners protesting against Brexit and supporting the People’s Vote.

A lookalike of former foreign secretary and Brexit supporter Boris Johnson also joined the crowd.

Richard Williams, who was travelling on the bus, said: “At least one lady in Hastings was convinced it was the real Boris. He even had to get his hair cut because Boris did recently, these guys are really committed.”
