So that’s 10 days.

Also, 670,000 was not the true amount, is highly exaggerated by PV themselves. Expert analysis puts it at 400,000 total. Rather tiny in comparison to the actual leave result tally of 17.4 Million. Farage’s march wasn’t a rally, it was a walk and it was limited to 200 and all 200 turned up, despite what the Fake News Media stated.

The winners of a Democratic vote shouldn’t need to protest. And the Democratic test was passed in 2016 via the ballot box, that’s how we really measure the nations desires, leave won by over a million more votes!

So march away, come back when you have over 17.4 Million.
I think the UK legislature can move quickly when it wants to. Let's see what happens, with Brexit you can never be sure one way or t'other!
I'm not sure comparing marchers to voters has any logic to it; likewise comparing the numbers willing to walk 20 miles a day for ten days or more takes more commitment and fitness than a half-day walk round London.
