DescriptionThe official Brexiteer campaign organisation at the 2016 referendum has been fined and senior figures referred to the police for breaking electoral law.

Vote Leave, which was supported by senior politicians including Boris Johnson and Michael Gove, failed to declare money it spent with controversial data firm Aggregate IQ, the Electoral Commission said.

The commission said its investigation found “significant evidence” of joint working between Vote Leave – which has been fined £61,000 – and another campaign group, BeLeave, which was founded by student Darren Grimes.
