This anti-Brexit campaigner will not be defeated by the BBC

You’ll probably be familiar now with the work of Steve Bray, the anti-Brexit protestor whose placards can regularly be seen behind people being interviewed outside Parliament.
Resulting in rather brilliant TV moments like this, for instance.

The BBC appears to have got a bit tired of seeing him in the background all the time so they built a tower overlooking College Green to keep him out of shot.
Except he did this.
Hello BBC News tower!
Some days you just have to work a bit harder…
Because I believe with 'heart and soul' that the EU is worth fighting for.

And now this happens.
The gantry deployed by the BBC hasn't defeated Steve Bray… he's simply got longer poles. ???#peoplesvote @SODEMAction @snb19692 pic.twitter.com/tCZBr7f64D

So instead of doing this sort of thing …
Oh dear.
I might have spoilt John Redwood MP's day.

… they do this sort of thing.
BBC has spent £10k building Fortress Brexit outside Parliament so they can get their precious "live from Westminster" coverage without placards and flags in shot. But they reckoned without Stand of Defiance European Movement @SODEMAction's Steve Bray. £2.50 solution from Screwfix pic.twitter.com/3APf8gTRmp
