Nigel Farage has told Brexiteers they must prepare for a second EU referendum. The former Ukip leader made the call at a Leave Means Leave rally and on Sunday morning reports have emerged that Theresa May allies have met with Labour MPs to discuss a re-run of the Brexit vote. He said campaigners should “move into a different gear” and “start forming branches and active groups all over this country”. But it comes after May returned from Brussels empty-handed after pleading with EU leaders for legally-binding changes to the controversial Northern Irish backstop plan. Labour, meanwhile, has said its first priority was to secure a general election before it would consider formally backing a second referendum.
