In the period of political uncertainty following the Brexit vote, Roy Greenslade suggested that the "Daily Mail"s "savage" "full-frontal assault on ...anyone hopeful of upending the EU referendum vote for Brexit", though a reflection of the "Mail"s readership, was also a reflection of Dacre's worries that MPs might reverse or mitigate the vote. After the High Court ruled over "R (Miller) v Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union" in November 2016 that a government bill must pass through parliament in order for Britain to leave the European Union, the "Mail" on its front page described the three judges involved as being "Enemies of the People". The press, implicitly taken as targeting Dacre's "Mail" without naming the title, were criticised when the issue reached the UK's Supreme Court by the Court's President Lord Neuberger as "undermining the rule of law".
