Reminder: book your tickets

Join our coach!- We have booked a coach for the third National Rejoin March, which will take place in London on 28th September 2024.
- We need to confirm the coach soon, so early bookings will be greatly appreciated!
- The coach will depart from Poole Railway Station at 8am, then pick up from Bournemouth Railway Station at 08.35 am and Southampton Airport Parkway Station at 09.35am.
- We've kept the price the same as last year (£20), even though the cost of the coach has gone up in price. Please make a donation when you book, if you can afford to: it helps us to support those on low wages to attend at a lower price.
- Book your coach tickets here.
- This is our chance to send a resounding message to the new government that we are not satisfied with promises to 'make Brexit work' - we want to REJOIN!

Oppose racism- The summer riots and civil disorder earlier this month have subsided, but some protests continue to be planned and advertised locally and across the country.
- At Dorset for Europe, we strongly oppose any form of racism, including Islamophobia, and recognise the human rights of all, which includes asylum seekers and refugees.
- Some Bournemouth hotels have been the target of protests already.
- A mass mobilisation against racism is planned for 11am, Sunday 18th August, meeting at the Bournemouth Civic Centre (Council Building) - tomorrow.
- Organisers have assured the police these are to be peaceful protests, but they are not suitable for children.
- A message from BCP Council sets out their plans, in conjunction with the police, for ensuring the safety of all.
