TENS of thousands of people marched through central London to demand a final vote on any UK exit deal, on the second anniversary of the Brexit vote.
Organisers of the People's Vote march say Brexit is "not a done deal" and people must "make their voices heard".
The protests were held as senior Cabinet ministers, including Liam Fox and David Davis, insist the UK is prepared to walk away from talks without an agreement.
World War Two veteran Stephen Goodall, 96, led the pro-EU protesters as they headed from Pall Mall to Parliament Square.
Among those addressing the demonstrators was Gina Miller, who successfully campaigned to ensure the UK could not trigger talks on leaving without the approval of Parliament.
She said: "Together we must stand up, demand our voices are heard, demand a people's vote so that future generations can hear us say we did our bit we stood up and shouted for a country that's together, kinder, tolerant.
"This is not a time to be silent."
Liberal Democrat leader Sir Vince Cable said Brexit was "not a done deal" and could be reversed, while Green Party co-leader Caroline Lucas told the crowd that Brexit "will be a disaster for this country".
Meanwhile, thousands of Scottish independence supporters staged a march to Bannockburn.
The latest All Under One Banner event near Stirling follows large marches in Glasgow and Dumfries earlier this year.
An estimated 8,000 people took part in Saturday's march which centred on Bannockburn, where Robert the Bruce claimed victory over Edward II's English army in 1314.
The march started at Kings Park in Stirling and continued for around two miles to Bannockburn.
Further marches are planned for Dundee and Edinburgh later in 2018.
