A pro-Brexit group has claimed 100,000 people will join Nigel Farage in a march against the decision to give Parliament a say on triggering Article 50.
Leave.EU said during the court case thousands would gather for a protest ending in Parliament Square, within sight of the Supreme Court where the challenge was being heard.
Plans of the protest emerged after Mr Farage warned of “disturbances in the street” if Brexit supporters became frustrated.
Leave.EU told The Daily Telegraph
If raised, Brexiteers would be able to challenge claims made by Remain and even the Government in court.
Mr Farage, along with other key Leave figures such as wealthy Brexiteers Arron Banks and Richard Tice, will lead the march as it travels from Trafalgar Square and down Whitehall.
A spokesperson for the organisers said they had “secured support from thousands of Leave voters” for the protest and legal action.
The march is scheduled to take place on 5 December, which is likely to be the first day of the hearing. The Supreme Court has allowed four days in its schedule for the hearing, which will be streamed live.
The Leave.EU spokesperson said the peaceful protest would be a “reminder about what we voted for, so there is no slippage on the single market which we think this case was used to get a negotiating stand on the single market”.
He continued: “We will also be launching with all Leave campaigns including members of all political parties a march on the Supreme Court to make a point that ‘Brexit means Brexit’.
“This will remind the Government/politicians and the establishment including the court that they cannot ignore the democratic vote of the people in the referendum.”
News of the march comes after Mr Farage warned of disturbances on the streets if Parliament attempts to thwart Brexit .

Brexit Concerns London to lose status as 'gateway to Europe' for banks One of Germany’s top banking regulators has warned that London could lose its status as “gateway to Europe” for the banking sector after Britain quits the European trading bloc. Andreas Dombret, who is an executive board member for the Bundesbank—Germany’s central bank—told a private meeting of German businesses and banks earlier this week in Frankfurt that even if banking rules were “equivalent” between the UK and the rest of the EU, that was still “miles away from [Britain having] access to the single market”, the BBC reports.

Brexit Concerns Brexit is making FTSE 100 executives richer Pay packages of many FTSE 100 chief executive officers are partly tied to how well share prices are doing rather than the CEO’s performance -- and some stocks are soaring. ritish equities got a boost since the June vote because the likes of Rio Tinto, Smiths Group and WPP generate most sales abroad and earn a fortune when they convert these revenues back into the weakened pound. Sterling’s fall also made UK stocks more affordable for overseas investors.

He called on Brexit backers to “get even” through peaceful protests and oppose at the ballot box anyone who seeks to overturn the process.
