Tell me which of their claims have been proven to be lies - the £380million may not be ring-fenced for NHS but it is back in the economy, the Remain campaign spent £900million of taxpayers money on a leaflet that hardly mentioned leave ( except to say it was not the preferred option of the government), and the amount of lies ( really biased forecasts) that project fear came out with ( non of which have proved true except maybe the £ dropping a bit, in fact the reverse to project fear happened with unemployment dropping best part of a million jobs, exports up and economy growing faster than predicted...
There were partisan projections on both sides, the establishment elite tried to put the fear of god into people to prevent a leave vote, but they never expected a leave vote because absolutely no provisions or plans were made for one.
By the way most of the people at the top of the electoral commission ( which is supposed to be fair and neutral) have been outed as staunch remainers ( maybe they work for the BBC on the side) - their investigations were never going to be un-biased. Politicians tell lies before every election but we do not have re-runs of those no matter how close the result, 5 years of a Labour government can do more harm to our economy than leaving the EU with no deal ( the old joke about Labour keeps spending until they run out of other peoples money is actually true). The old crony politicians who would not know democracy if it bit them on the leg have a lot to answer for with their anti-UK pro-EU shenanigens which have emboldened the EU to give us the worst possible deal and let their fifth columnist quislings in UK push for a second referendum, shame on them when was hanging for high treason abolished...
