Increased pressure on Met Police regarding illegalities of EU Referendum

First it was denied outright and then it was suggested that whilst irregularities may have been identified within the Leave.eu campaign, none of it involved anything that could be deemed criminal in its nature. Now, the Electoral Commission investigation has actually concluded that criminal activity did take place by the Leave.eu and potentially other Leave campaign groups and that they have handed their investigation over to the Metropolitan Police. But, as yet, there have been absolutely no signs of action from the Met side and some Senior politicians are getting pretty angry about that.

There also seems to be a significant deficit in media coverage over the matter, with mostly some of the more obscure publications given the issue column inches.

Labour Party MP, David Lammy is one of the many senior figures suggesting this is looking more and more like a cover up and asking for action.

Leave.eu have already been fined £70,000 by the Electoral Commission and its CEO has been referred to Scotland Yard. David Halsall and Darren Grimes have also been referred to Met Police for irregularities that are likely to amount to criminality.

Scotland Yard have openly declared that “political sensitivities” have stalled any further action on the complaints. Which would strike absolutely anybody as admittance of a potential cover up.
