March for Europe, London

March for Europe, London, UK (2 July 2016). Tens of thousands march in protest against the prospect of Britain leaving the EU, following the EU referendum. Although the country voted by a narrow majority to leave the EU, the Leave campaign was subsequently shown to be based substantially upon lies and misinformation. As predicted by Remain campaigners the referendum result was immediately followed by a major downturn in the UK economy, and since the result there has also seen a sharp increase in racist attacks and hate crime across the UK. © Rudolf Abraham
