Femi Oluwole

Oluwole has interned in non-governmental organisations and human rights agencies. At the age of 27 he left his traineeship and moved into his parents' loft to become a campaigner against Brexit, telling the Evening Standard that he made the decision to quit two months before his traineeship ended because he was "frustrated that the pro-Remain argument was not being made effectively by mainstream politicians."^{[11][better source needed]} In pursuing this, Oluwole created the social media channel Our Future Our Choice in September 2017, which, with the collaboration of Will Dry and Lara Spirit,^[12] who had launched an anti-Brexit student activism movement in universities, was incorporated as a company on 19 February 2018.^{[3][6][13][14]} The group advocated a pro-EU message from a youth standpoint.^[13][15] He supported the People's Vote campaign for a further referendum on EU membership.^[16]

Oluwole regularly appeared in the media during the process of the United Kingdom's exit from the European Union.^[17][18] Oluwole has written for The Independent,^[19] The Guardian,^[20] and the Metro,^[21] and has appeared on Talkradio.^[22]

In July 2019, Richard Tice, the then chair of the Brexit Party, threatened to sue Oluwole after he alleged that Leave.EU (an organisation Tice co-founded) was "overtly antisemitic". Leave.EU had posted a caricature of Jewish businessman and Holocaust survivor George Soros puppeteering former Prime Minister Tony Blair, captioned "The face of the People’s Vote campaign."^[23] Oluwole refused to apologise.^[24][4]

During the 2024 United Kingdom general election, Oluwole was barred from a Reform UK rally in Birmingham. Despite Oluwole showing his press pass, security guards at the venue said they “didn’t know” why he was not allowed to attend the event.^[25]
