If you’ve been following the never-ending saga that is Brexit, or even just looked at Twitter at any point during, Gina Miller will be a household name to you. A serial entrepreneur, passionate philanthropist and advocate for responsible capitalism, Gina shot to fame over twice leading successful Supreme Court cases to ensure Brexit be democratically debated in parliament and who, in the process, became something of a favourite punching bag for extreme Brexitiers both online and off. But, if that’s all you know about her: there is so much more. In this episode of Power Done Differently, Gina and I sit down to talk about all things democracy: how the UK’s political system could do with some pretty serious reforms, why the Leave campaign won with emotion, and how she’s been cast aside one too many times for being an outspoken woman of colour. Gina also discusses her approach to befriending her bullies, surviving domestic abuse, how she made Nigel Farage loose his composure on national TV, and why she remains staunchly against looking, sounding, and behaving like a politician. In their review of her debut book, Rise: Life Lessons in Speaking Out, Standing Tall & Leading the Way, The Sunday Times called Gina, “a woman of true grit and courage, of whom we should all - whatever our views on Brexit - be proud.” This episode is a must-listen for anyone devoted to restoring sense, decency and emotional intelligence in politics.
