This seems a bit pointless.
It ends of the day we leave (?) the EU so it won't influence any voting.
Also a linear march - or selection of mini-marches - means that the majority of Brexit supporters won't be able to take part due to distance or problems with walking.
The £50 fee also sounds reasonable - but overall it will put people off.
Also, spreading the protest over several days weakens the effect.
I would have though that a mini-protest in each town and village on a single dedicated day early enough to influence voting would have been more effective.
No fees, minimal travel, no walking, easy nationwide access : all could have led to a major turnout.
BTW the press seems to be fairly low key on the march ... should I be surprised?
