The official parliamentary petition for the UK to rejoin the EU has just passed 100,000 signatures.
This is a huge achievement and comes after a surge of people signing this week.
Hitting the 100,000 threshold should trigger a debate on the issue in Parliament. This will be the first-ever parliamentary debate on rejoining the EU (not just a debate on Brexit).
Politicians like to say that people "don't care" about Europe any more – but the people are proving them wrong.
The petition is currently in 9th place on the overall most-signed petitions chart, and only 25,000 signatures away from breaking into the top five.
Let's keep it going!
Ukraine anniversary demonstration
Stay European is supporting the "Russian Troops Out, Solidarity With Ukraine" demonstration in London on Saturday 22 February, organised by the Ukraine Solidarity Campaign.
Backed by a coalition of Ukrainian community groups and UK trade unions, the march will mark the third anniversary of Russia's invasion of Ukraine.
Day for Rejoin – new date
We previously announced that the next "Day for Rejoin" would take place next month.
However the date has now been moved to Saturday 10 May, to coincide with the week of Europe Day.
For more details and updates see the National Rejoin March website.
