'Kill Gina Miller' crowdfunding page investigated by police
 

GoFundMe site says sorry to anti-Brexit campaigner after page sought to raise money for a hitman.
Police are investigating a crowdfunding page that advocated killing the anti-Brexit campaigner Gina Miller.

The page, which has been on the GoFundMe website since April, sought to raise £10,000 for a hitman to kill Miller, but did not raise any money before it was taken down.

A Metropolitan police spokesman said: “Officers from the Met’s south-west CID team are currently investigating a report of threats to kill that was reported to them on Wednesday 23 October.

“Enquiries remain ongoing and the victim, a female aged in her 50s, has been regularly updated.”

A GoFundMe spokesman said: “This campaign has been removed. We are sorry it got through our otherwise robust procedures. We are particularly sorry for any distress this caused Gina Miller.”

Responding to the petition on Twitter, Miller said: “We need to heal our nation and my view is that the only way of doing that is to remember true British values of tolerance, decency, reason, civic duty, common-sense and above all else honesty and kindness.”

Miller said she was subjected to rape and death threats after entering the public eye three years ago for leading the campaign to ensure parliament had a say in triggering Brexit.
