There is no benefits to this court case at all - it just turns this country in to something resembling North Korea, you really want to take this country down this path?
It just utter crazy, prosecuting a politician for lying during a political campaign.

So, couple of differences
1) Boris's words MAY have influenced the way in which a subset of voters voted during the referendum
2) I don't see how this compares to some people who may wish to rerun something and it hasn't been rerun.
Holding those in a position of power and/or responsibility accountable for actions should be seen as a good thing. it sets the expectation of the standards that are required.
NOT holding them accountable is more akin to the North Korea which you keep referring too.
