Campaigners demanding a final say on any Brexit deal organised a previous march in October which reportedly drew 700,000.
But organisers say the #PutitothePeopleMarch has become one of the biggest in British history with attendance having “surpassed the one million mark.”
It comes after more than 4-million people have signed an online petition asking for article 50 to be revoked.
