SHE'S AT IT AGAIN

Chief Remoaner Gina Miller is crowdfunding a tour of marginal seats to urge people to vote tactically by booting out our Brexiteers and backing pro-EU candidates

GINA MILLER is crowdfunding for a new campaign to stop an "extreme Brexit" and boost pro-EU MPs.

The businesswoman who fought Theresa May in court is raising money for a tour of marginal constituencies to try and encourage voters to back MPs who promise a vote on a final Brexit deal.

She has already raised half of her £10,000 goal to promote a "tactical voting" campaign.

Ms Miller took the Government to court last year - arguing that minister needed a vote in Parliament before triggering Article 50.

She won the case - which made the PM push a vote through the Commons and the Lords.

But now she has warned that she could take them back to court AGAIN if they don't follow through on a vote for the final Brexit deal.

The businesswoman said of her new campaign: "We will support candidates who campaign for a real final vote on Brexit, including rejecting any deal that leaves Britain worse off.

"We will use the money to back candidates who pledge to support a full and free vote on the Brexit deal. We will also work with organisations with the same goals."

Mrs May shocked the country yesterday when she called for a snap poll on June 8 to stop those in Westminster who were trying to obstruct Brexit.

MPs will vote today on approving her plans for an election - the PM needs two thirds of people to be able to hold another vote before 2020.

, she wrote: "Do what's best for Britain!

"Support the country's biggest tactical voting drive ever and stop Extreme Brexit.

"The future of our country is in the people's hands."

But users who commented on her page urged her to put her money where her mouth is and stand as a candidate instead.
