Disbanded
In Summer 2019, the Right To Vote campaign folded with the group subsequently deleting their website.[6]
However, the official Conservatives for a People’s Vote (C4PV) and Young Conservatives for a People’s Vote (YC4PV) continued to campaign for a confirmatory referendum, participating in the ‘Let us be Heard’ march in October 2019.[7] Both groups formally disbanded in January 2020.[8]
