Jeremy Corbyn has visited Morecambe as part of a local election campaign tour at the same time as one million people took to the streets for an anti-Brexit protest.
The Labour leader, who has been criticised for a lack of clarity on his Brexit stance, spoke at the Lancashire town ahead of local elections on May 2.
Meanwhile, the 'Put it to the People' march saw an estimated million protesters in the capital.
Jeremy Corbyn (pictured above) took a stroll on the beach in Morecambe today after spending a day canvassing there
While Corbyn enjoyed the beach crowds gathered in London to listen to speakers at a rally organised by the pro-European People's Vote campaign
Many protesters waved banners and placards that criticised Corbyn's Brexit policy.
One group had a picture of the Labour leader with the caption 'he's not the messiah, he's a very naughty boy', in reference to Monty Python's Life of Brian.
Speakers addressing the rally outside Parliament include Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon and Labour's London Mayor Sadiq Khan and Labour deputy leader Tom Watson.
Jeremy Corbyn chose to visit Morecambe ahead of local elections on May 2 rather than attend the 'People's Vote' march in London
The Labour leader canvassed with local councillors in the Lancashire town, distancing himself from the protests in London
Organisers of the march claim a million took to the streets of central London six days before the UK is due to leave the EU
Former Labour MP Chuka Umunna joined in on the march wearing a t-shirt demanding a People's Vote.
Jeremy Corbyn walked out of a cross-party meeting earlier this week when he discovered Umunna, the spokesman for The Independent Group, was present.
Organisers of the march claim a million people turned up while the Metropolitan Police refused to comment on the numbers.
Jeremy Corbyn has been criticised for not taking a firm stance on Brexit as the country nears its split from the EU
Former Labour MP Chuka Umunna took centre stage during the protest, wearing a shirt alongside Anna Soubry expressing their support for the march as they were surrounded by anti-Brexit campaigners
As well as campaigning against Brexit, this protester took the time out to express his dissatisfaction with the leaders of both of the UK's main parties
Banners saying 'Labour for a socialist Europe' and 'Love socialism, hate Brexit' were seen at the protest despite Jeremy Corbyn's absence.
Another waved two placards saying 'Corbyn and May betray the UK' and 'Working class against Brexit'.
At the same time, the Labour leader joined councillors knocking on doors in Morecambe and spoke at the town's War Memorial Hall.
An anti-Brexit and pro-socialist banner was unfurled and hung from Westminster Bridge before today's march in London started
Local elections will take place on May 2 but the UK could be leaving the EU as early as Friday

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
