Today's event has been organised by a number of lobbying groups against Brexit - including Open Britain, the European Movement, Scientists for EU and For Our Future's Sake.

Co-founder of For Our Future's Sake Jason Arthur said in a video posted on Twitter: “I’m here marching with thousands of people because ultimately we care about the future of this country.

"We all collectively think that Brexit is going to damage our future, it's going to damage our economy and damage our society and we think people should have the right to change their minds."

He added: "We are going to make our voices heard and make sure the government realises that our future is best served by remaining in the European Union."

Roads closures are currently in place ahead of a planned rally at 3pm.

Meanwhile, Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson has urged the Prime Minister to deliver a "full British Brexit".

Talking to The Sun, he said people would not tolerate a "bog roll Brexit" that was "soft, yielding and seemingly infinitely long".

International Trade Secretary Liam Fox said the UK was not "bluffing" about being prepared to walk away from talks with Brussels, and Brexit Secretary David Davis said there is "lots going on" to prepare in case negotiations collapse.

Addressing claims about UK qualifications, a government spokeswoman said: "To be clear, this Government does not want nor expect a no deal outcome from these negotiations.

"As a part of our Withdrawal Agreement, we have already agreed the continued recognition of these qualifications where recognition decisions were received, or where recognition procedures were ongoing, before the end of the implementation period.

"The government will seek to agree a continued system for the mutual recognition of professional qualifications as part of our future relationship with the EU and we are working in good faith towards a deal." RSS feed from The Sun
