On that basis it should be annulled by the Supreme Court.
    If it had been lost to bremainers it would have been based solely on FUD so I'd call it quits.

      Guys you won! Why can't you now admit that it was a lie? What difference does it make? Just be honest about it and move on.
      That's pretty damning.

      Do our Brexit friends believe that this was a deliberate falsehood, or an honest mistake?

        Or let's give just some of it. Or let's keep it ourselves. Or let's spend some on infrastructure. Or let's give some to Scotland. Or let's go to the seaside. Or let's have a picnic. Or let's buy a new cat. Or let's have a piss up. Or let's spend it on sports for kids. Etc etc.

        Can't see any promise there.

        It was clearly wrong though as it's £375m per week. ONS.

          Deliberate falsehood then. Thanks for clearing that up.

            I'm still waiting for an emergency budget. Lie.

            I'm still waiting to be £4,310 per year worse off. Lie.

            I'm still waiting for the stock market to fail. Lie.

            I'm still waiting for my pension to be worth less. Lie.

            Etc. Etc.

            And what's even more bizarre is that you think people would be influenced by the side of a bus. Or something like the infamous UKIP poster.

            The vast majority knew what we wanted way before the vote.

              One should separate opinions (that FUD from both sides) vs EXACT PROMISES like the one was made by the Brexiters on NHS.

                Person who promises emergency budget is sacked, he can't bring it.

                Other things you mention were OPINIONS not promises of action, in any event since Bremainers lost they are not in charge in Govt right now, so the onus on doing what was promise is on the WINNING side

                  So you now agree it was FRAUDLENT claim, but your position is that it did not convince more than 2% of voters?

                  AFAIK NHS employs 1 mln people, add supply chain, family members etc - enough swing vote there to change result

                    Obviously a lie as we still haven't got a linky. Typical Brexiter...
                    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                      Agree, fair comment on the Emergency Budget. The rest - I'm glad you're ready and waiting.
