Sorry, I don’t remember the remain campaign being taken to court over lies, or being fined for such. Could you link to those occurrences?
There are plenty of examples if you bother to search, e.g.

Thanks! I did look but couldn’t find anything, probably because I was looking for fines for lying to voters rather than campaign finance problems, but yeah that’s not great.
