Making the news today....

Returning ADR, and doffing cap guv'nor, but, if you can find me a verbal quote of a major player in the Brexit camp stating that 350 mil will go directly into the NHS.....

 

See, I don't think it is splitting hairs, I think it was/is blatant opportunism and misrepresentation by the remain camp.

 

(That'll be Youtube crashing under the weight of traffic then...)

 

Whereas I think it was blatant misrepresentation by the Leave campaign in that it was clearly intended to be taken as a connected statement. Farage agreed as well. Potato, potahto.

Kevin, I think Felix might have a point.

Connected yes....

 

The message was:

 

There will be money that we are not sending to Bruxelles which we might better spend in the UK.

 

The assumption that ALL of it would unilaterally be pumped into a single department is beyond naive but has served a useful purpose.

 

The genius that decided it was a good idea to put the 2 parts of the message together on one bus, thereby attempting to steal some sympathy from the great British public's unhealthy (ha, ha) obsession with all things NHS has resulted in this very useful beating stick.

So let me get this right……. Corbyn supporters are finding fault with the level campaigners for making promises they cannot keep? Priceless!!!

Alright, we need a new topic!

 

How can a sensible person believe that the Brexit team were in any way authorised to commit future government spending?

 

It defies logic but..... Serves a useful purpose.

 

I would concede that it was a very poorly conceived ad.

 

I would conceded that there may have been an attempt to give an impression that additional money could be allocated to the NHS.

 

I can't believe anyone actually believed Brexit = £350 mill additional funding into the NHS.
