Madeleina Kay, also known as EU Supergirl, is an artist, musician and poltical activist who commonly wears superhero costumes to campaign against Britain's departure from the European Union. She was famously told to leave a European Commission press conference, despite having press accreditation, for wearing a Supergirl outfit.
