Cartmel sorry for abusive tweets aimed at Gina Miller

CARTMEL racecourse was forced to apologise today after offensive tweets appeared to be sent from its account regarding Brexit and Gina Miller.

The tweets accused Ms Miller, who led the legal challenge against the move to prorogue Parliament, of having “caused all of the chaos three years ago” as well as describing her as “an awkward defiant bitch.”

One social media user shared screen grabs of the tweets in question, writing: “Either Cartmel’s Twitter’s been hacked, or somebody forgot to switch accounts.”
