Georgia Toffolo is backing Brexit

Georgia Toffolo is backing Brexit even though she voted remain.
The ‘Made in Chelsea’ star voted against Brexit during the 2016 EU referendum insisting that she’s "very pro-immigration" and admitting she didn’t believe the rhetoric of the original leave campaign concerning migration.
However, the 34-year-old reality star feels the country is "bored and angry" that Britain is still in the EU three years after Leave claimed victory and confessed she is now a keen Brexiteer.
In an interview with the Telegraph, she said: "We need to leave, deal or no deal. The mood of the country is that we’re bored, we’re angry, we voted to leave
"And there are lots of calls for a second referendum, but if that does happen, I would be very, very upset.’
The ‘I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here’ winner also explained that she isn’t a fan of Prime Minister Theresa May and feels that the position would be more suited to a "big Brexiteer".
She said: "I was [a fan of May] while growing up because she was my grandparent’s MP and I’ve always looked at her as quite a strong woman
"But I just don’t know if she should have been chosen to lead a country that voted to leave the EU.
"It would be interesting in hindsight if a big Brexiteer would have got us a better deal and if we’d have left by now perhaps."
As for who she wants to see take over from May – the socialite is backing Conservative politicians Jeremy Hunt and Boris Johnson.
She said: "I’m a slight betting woman and had money on Jeremy Hunt at the end of last year, because the odds were really good, 18-1 or something.
"I think it’ll be Hunt and Boris in the end, and as a great friend of Stanley’s I’d have to put my backing behind Boris."
