The unfairness that rich Remainers like Gina Miller can thwart Brexit

Anti-Brexit campaigner Gina Miller after the Supreme Court ruling on the prorogation of Parliament.

DAVID Howram seems to miss the blindingly obvious in supporting Gina Miller (The Yorkshire Post, October 10). We are in the current dire straits over Brexit because the likes of her refused to accept the majority vote.

In his final sentence, your correspondent berated ‘‘Brexiteers’’ for accepting a representative parliament ‘‘ninety-nine per cent of the time’’ – but insisting we be governed by referendum so far as the question of leaving or remaining in Europe is concerned.
