1. Rage
Against
Brexit
Let’s Re-Boot Britain
Let’s Make Brexit History
Click to listen to the song
Why, why, why do this?
We can reverse Brexit if we change the narrative in populist media and in Westminster.
Parliamentary Paralysis has allowed Brexit to live. It must surely die for the sake of future
generations. We aim to put a song in the charts to wake people up across Europe
Populist media will give us a voice about the need to reverse Brexit if the song charts on
Friday 19st June. It will at least have a massive disruptive effect on attempts to finalise No
Deal Brexit while the nation sleeps.
For the price of a cup of coffee, you get to “Make Brexit History”.
Be part of a phenomenon.
We begin on Friday 05 June with pre-orders.
We need an army of super spreaders so contact your friends.
Proceeds to go towards European Movements to reverse
Brexit shambles and Re-Boot Britain for the good of all.
Brexit + Corona = Britastrophe

2. The mathematics of having a hit
100 000 downloads gets us to the Official Charts.
16.4 MILLION remainers, so this SHOULD be easy. BUT, people don’t always click on links.
We also need ALL the downloads within ONE week from Fri 12 00.01 am – Thu 19 June
11.59 pm, as we are not Led Zeppelin, Lady Gaga or Queen etc.
However, if we chart in week one, we will keep the song in the chart the following week.
So, initial momentum is essential via pre-orders and a big push during the week itself.
ALL downloads count on ALL platforms – iTunes, Amazon,
Google etc.
150 streams = 1 download, so if you stream, do it thousands
of times. Last time we did this we reached No 1 on Amazon, beating ABBA, but not for but
long enough to reach the Official Charts. We have learned.
Sharing the video does NOT count towards chart success.
