A DUTCH boy band has been mercilessly mocked online after they appeared on TV with their pro-European Union song Britain Come Back.

Dubbed the Breunion Boys the five lads have released their single in a bid to get Brexiteers to change their mind about leaving the EU next year.

They now hope to do a tour of the pubs of the UK to spread their message.

Filmmaker Julia Veldman, the mastermind behind the project told Good Morning Britain the band’s music would “change people’s minds” about the outcome of the referendum.

She said: “They are going to change peoples' minds because this is a sound they haven't heard yet. Of course we disagree with the decision.

“But this gut feeling should be answered by the European Union. We are European citizens and we feel responsible to respond.”

Band member Hajo, when asked why he wanted the UK to stay in the EU, said: “I watch BBC almost every day.

“I've watched all the movies, like Love Actually, I feel very passionate about Britain and was planning to live here so I'm involved in that way.”

The video for the song sees the lads perform their dance moves on a Dutch beach while singing along.

The lyrics include: “I cannot believe this is the end (oh no); I still feel your love inside me; I still sing your words.

“Your voice paints my heart; your mirage fades away. Your choice turns my spine gray.

“There's always been a sea between us, we used to sail it together — but you're leaving, now we're falling apart.

“Britain, come back to us, it is not too late to turn around.”

The track, written by Dutch song composer Flavia Faas, cost Ms Veldman more than $13,000 out of her own pocket.

The band’s appearance though was roundly mocked on social media with many even suggesting their music was actually a good reason to vote against remaining in the bloc.

Josh D wrote on Twitter: “Breunion Boys on Good Morning Britain have convinced me that we need to leave the European Union.

“I was Remain, but thank you lads, you've just destroyed it.”
