The £350 million regarding the NHS was a comparative figure - I have posted the explanation of that already. It was also an exhortation. It had no weight whatsoever in terms of any kind of commitment to implement. Is that too difficult to comprehend?

The £350 NHS slogan was just a blatant lie, as the maths didn't add up.

A fact that the Leave campaign knew and yet still ploughed on with it, their own research showed that it was the decisive factor in the result, as confirmed by the Director of Leave Dominic Cummings. Why do you find this too difficult to digest?

A decisive factor? You advocates change tack with the wind. When it suits you it was immigration. The flavour of the day at present is now the comparative £350 million cost to build an NHS hospital. Hilarious, if it was not pathetic.

I never cease to be amazed, or amused, at the hand-wringing of those who voted remain. I am also amazed that there are some who STILL want to remain part of an organisation that is dictatorial, corrupt to the core, and presently appears to want to bash the UK at every opportunity it can - witness the recent statements from their chief negotaitor, for example.

Frightened chickens, in a corner, clucking 'Please keep the status quo'. Well nothing stands still mateys. As Yes sang, 'Perpetual Changes'...

Pardon me for quoting the words of the man who lead the Leave campaign and watched the poll trends daily and came to that conclusion. I've quoted his comments to you before, but you've seemingly forgotten, so here's a reminder;

Pundits and MPs kept saying ‘why isn’t Leave arguing about the economy and living standards’. They did not realise that for millions of people, £350m/NHS was about the economy and living standards – that’s why it was so effective. It was clearly the most effective argument not only with the crucial swing fifth but with almost every demographic. Even with UKIP voters it was level-pegging with immigration. Would we have won without immigration? No. Would we have won without £350m/NHS? All our research and the close result strongly suggests No.

Taken out of context, i.e. not the context you make it out to be (a lie). Here's Cummings in his own words:

We don't give the EU £350m a week and never have, the net figure is less than half of that. So sorry you're wrong....

Taken out of context? I've quoted him verbatim and the words are from that same article ffs

Another deluded Leaver who doesn't know the difference between fact and fiction.

Bow to the cult of Brexit....

I mean he literally says that in the paragraph above your quote from the blog. He admits himself that we don’t send them £350m & never did.

The whole idea is ridiculous anyway, regardless of what the figure is.

Yeah I could quit my job and save £30 a week on a bus pass which I could put towards my health, but at the end of the day I'm going to be far worse off and have less to spend overall on my health without the income from my job.

Yeah but if you mention the inevitable fall in GDP that'll offset the supposed 'gain', then the cult of Brexit dismiss that with 'Project Fear'

Ignore the hundreds of economic experts who've told us that our economy will go backwards, they all know nothing - and pray to the God of Isolationism - it'll all be grand - honest.

So we can't consider the future of the economy and what countless experts predict because that's "Project Fear" and we don't know what will actually happen (even though it is blindingly obvious and already happening)?

But sometimes, when we feel like it, we do actually know the future and we have to vote out because we know that an EU superstate will happen definitely for sure, no doubt about it, and they will start a war with Russia?

That about covers it.

Just add 'think positive', as apparently that's going to make all the difference. We're going to overcome the loss of Billions in GDP with the power of positive thought. Tonga is a massive untapped opportunity.
