Dozens of demonstrators belonging to a group called "Stop the Coup" gathered in central Berlin on Saturday to protest against a no-deal Brexit.
The protesters, who collected signatures for apetition, said they wanted to defend British democracy following Prime MinisterBoris Johnson's order to suspend parliament for five weeks before Britain isdue to leave the EU on Oct. 31.
"This calculated prorogation of parliament is athreat to British democracy, causing a constitutional crisis at a time ofnational crisis," read the petition letter, which the demonstratorsplanned to deliver later on Saturday to Britain's ambassador to Germany.
"This utter chaos has brought us together insolidarity to defend British democracy," the letter added.
Saturday's demonstration in Berlin took place as the BBC reported that British lawmakers, including Conservatives expelled this week from the party, were preparing legal action in case Johnson refuses to seek a delay to Brexit.
