Thousands of people across the UK took to the streets on Saturday afternoon to protest against the decision to suspend parliament for five weeks and essentially forcing through a no-deal Brexit.
Members of the public took to the streets all over the country to voice their anger against the move by the government which will essentially prevent MPs from voting against a no-deal exit from the European Union.
The outcry against Boris Johnson was seen across the country with members of the public amassing in their droves in cities from London to Glasgow and Brighton to Newcastle, to let the PM know how they feel.
As always with these type of events, there were plenty of signs both scathing and hilarious which really made a statement. Here are xx of the best.
