Farage lied about his lies.

More fool the idiots who didn't realise that Farage does not dictate government policy, is not party of the Conservative government and was nothing more than a mouthpiece.

More fool the Remainers for winding up the people, too, by patronising them.

But well done to the government on running yet another great divide and conquer scheme.

Or you know people formed their own opinion based on what they had seen/read for the previous 20 years?

I find it rather insulting that people think I based my vote on a few weeks campaigning by some people......

In fact i would probably go as far to say that anyone who tries to bring any sort of legal action against either the remain or exit campaigns should be told to get lost as they are obviously stupid.

Blair lied to parliament and so was protected by parliamentary privilege.

The Leave campaign lied to the public even when the ONS pointed out they were making facts up. Funnily enough Farage was the only one who didn't lie about the amount, as he wasn't in the official Leave campaign.

Farage lied about his lies.

Footage from BBC Question Time on 9 June – just weeks before the referendum – shows the Ukip leader claiming the available cash was higher than £350 million and saying money should be spent on hospitals and GPs.

“Can we just get to the truth of this - £350 million a week is wrong, it’s higher than that,” he told the programme’s audience.

I was actually thinking that they spent too much on it and breached electoral rules.

Though if we can't do B'liar for a students dodgy dossier how can we for CMD spending millions too much on a bunch of lies.

Surely that would be MORE fuel to the argument, not less? You can't say "both sides broke the law so it probably evens out" it just increases the scale of the problem.

only if we ignore the illegal actions of the remainers side.

I'd like to see them prosecuted as well if they broke the law.. Multiple wrongs shouldn't cancel each other out.

You know it won't happen.

[darmstadt]

Being a pragmatic Brexiter I don't believe that it would add any value. Remember we won and all that is happening is desperate bremainers are trying to derail the Brexit process. I expect when we get the plan for brexit some tosser will complain it is on the wrong paper. I suspect they will live abroad as well.

It will be on the wrong paper, it'll be on the Daily Mail who's owner just happens to live abroad as well.

Make your own complaint if you have evidence.

Dear Old Greg,

This made me think of you:

In a slight distortion of the KLF's words 'it's grim up North'.

Newry Sainsbury's car park was packed with RoI cars last weekend.
