Leave.EU’s video of a pro-Brexit protest didn’t go down like they’d hoped -14 scathing responses
In an ironic move, a group of Brexiters took a leaf out of France’s book and staged a protest wearing yellow hi-vis jackets. In site of not attracting many supporters, they managed to block the traffic on Westminster Bridge, prompting campaign group Leave.EU to post this video.
Unsurprisingly, the sight of the protest blocking an emergency-response ambulance didn’t elicit such a proud response from most people, including these 14.

It’s hard to think of a clearer demonstration of how extreme Brexiters couldn’t give a shit about anyone else as long as Brexit happens than footage of them proudly stopping an ambulance. https://t.co/JXpO6DfG6M

You can’t seriously have posted your supporters literally blocking an ambulance from Guys and St Thomas’ Hospital on an emergency run. Seriously, @andywigmore ? @arron_banks ? https://t.co/BgKe11oFHh

Watch brainless Brextremists block an ambulance with its blue light flashing and siren screaming then boast about it. This is what happens when a group funded by wealthy elitist Right-whingers ignores the health of the people… https://t.co/sar6RZeu4a

You're blocking a rapid response car from the @GSTTnhs ECMO Retrieval Team, that delivers critical care personnel and gear to very unwell patients needing external heart and lung support.
Someone could be dying and one of your supporters is giving them the finger. Classy. https://t.co/90swJvICET

Couldn't make it up…Brexit supporters congratulate themselves on copying the gilets jaunes idea from France and hold up an ambulance on an emergency call out. https://t.co/0S13YVg9VI

1. They've stolen the yellow vest idea from the French movement AGAINST collapsing living standards to protest IN FAVOUR OF deliberately collapsing UK living standards with a "no deal" economic meltdown.
2. They're blocking an ambulance on a call and actually gloating about it! https://t.co/Uojs6DSq1g
