‘Internexit’ for Leave.EU as domain name temporarily suspended

Error message greets visitors to site registered in name of Irish businessman who claims he does not know campaign group

Leave.EU has been forced to Internexit" after the group's EU domain name was temporarily suspended. It comes after the Irish businessman in whose name the pro-Brexit campaign group's domain name is registered denied having any involvement with the organisation.

Now visitors to the site are greeted with an error message, and the EU's online registry marks the domain as under a server hold, meaning it is temporarily inactive and under investigation".
