With ‘Brexit to cost £2,000 million a week is it worth it?’ emblazoned on the side, the bus is currently touring the UK after a pro-European group raised £16,000 through crowdfunding.

Addressing a crowd outside Chichester Cathedral, Christopher Beazley, a former MEP, said: “Together our parliament in Westminster can vote for Britain remaining in the customs union, can vote to stay in the single market. And the clock is ticking, who knows we may even come to the best possible decision for Britain which is remaining members of the European Union.”
