Met Police drop criminal probe into Leave.EU spending https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-49689681
I read yesterday that the leave campaign (Aaron Banks) was cleared yesterday of breaking the law in the 2016 referendum. According to the police no case to answer.
Does anyone know if this is true? because the impartial BBC haven't covered the story so I have my doubts.
After all they did have blanket coverage when they were accused.

Hi i961pie, sorry to bring this up but when you quote another post using the 'Reply with Quote' button, please can you check that appears at the end of the quoted section, not just at the beginning so that the system knows both where the quote begins and ends? Ta!

The spokesperson added: "As the Metropolitan Police note, this does not alter the findings of the commission's investigation from May last year, which found Ms Bilney to have committed four offences, including of submitting an inaccurate spending return and of exceeding the spending limit.
"Leave.EU appealed these findings, but the commission's position was upheld in court."
