Andrea Leadsom says Brexit ‘apologists’ MPS should leave PPA<\/h3>\n

Remainers struggled to respond when asked what they missed about the European Union. Thousands of pro-EU protesters took to the streets in the capital London today demanding the UK rejoin the European bloc. During the march, Ben Leo, a programme editor for Dan Wootton Tonight on GB News, interviewed a number of the activists.<\/p>\n

One woman, who was wearing a yellow curly wig and a shirt emblazoned with the EU flag, suggested that the economies of other EU member states have “recovered a lot better than we have”.<\/p>\n

The interviewer pointed out: “Germany is in recession though, and we are not, so how is that true?”<\/p>\n

The embarrassed activist struggled to refute this point, simply saying: “Um, I’m not an economist.”<\/p>\n

In the latest Office for National Statistics figures, the UK economy shrank by 0.5 percent.<\/p>\n

However, Chancellor Jeremy Hunt said the latest economic figures showed “many reasons to be confident about the future”.<\/p>\n

He said that the UK economy was now on course to grow faster than Germany, France and Italy.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Germany – the largest economy of the EU – fell into a recession in the first quarter of the year as GDP growth was revised from zero to -0.3 percent.<\/p>\n

On Monday, the Bundesbank said the German economy is likely to shrink this quarter again.<\/p>\n

In another encounter, a protester was asked what he missed about the European Union.<\/p>\n

The man hesitated for a number of seconds before simply responding: “I like the EU.”<\/p>\n

The National Rejoin March, which is organised by an alliance of pro-Brussels groups, follows a similar event last year.<\/p>\n

Speakers included Belgian MEP Guy Verhofstadt, anti-Brexit activist Steve Bray and pro-EU campaigner Gina Miller.<\/p>\n

National Rejoin March co-founder Peter Corr told LBC earlier this week that the march will be an annual event.<\/p>\n

He said: “We want to put rejoin on the agenda and keep it there until we’re back in the EU.”<\/p>\n

It comes as Tories have warned Labour cannot be trusted on Brexit after Sir Keir Starmer pledged to rewrite the trade deal with the EU.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, France and Germany earlier this week put forward proposals that would allow Britain to return to the bloc as an “associate member”.<\/p>\n
