A top UK hedge fund manager who donated generously to the Vote Leave campaign in 2016 has warned of a ‘revolution’ if Brexit does not go ahead.   

Staunch Brexiteer Crispin Odey, 60, was responding to comments he made last week saying Brexit ‘ain’t going to happen’ due to the ‘current configuration of parliament’. 

He has now clarified his position saying this was a misunderstanding and that he was not referring to the long-term political outlook, but rather the short-term. 

Speaking to the Financial News, he said: ‘All I was saying, which maybe was misquoted, was that it was very obvious, given the constitution of parliament, that we weren’t going to get a Brexit.’ 

The flamboyant fund manager has previously given hundreds of thousands to campaigns backing Britain’s separation from the European Union including Global Britain and the Democracy Movement.    

He added: ‘In the long-term, usually what the people want, the people get. Otherwise there’s a revolution.’
