Never thought that to begin with. Point is that it was a blatant Leave campaign lie which is now becoming obvious after having duped thousands into it. It's a shame that this debate ended up like this, albeit predictable. Besides, as arguably the most publicised Leave campaigner, Farage is equally complicit in this for lacking the courage to address blatant lies but condoning the talking points of the largest Leave group in the UK.

Exactly how is it a lie? It's our money to spend as we choose once we secede. It might've been presented in a glamorised fashion but the fundamental idea is still there.

You don't see how "hey guys, we lose 350 million pounds to the EU every single week, so vote Leave, and we'll use all that money to fund the NHS!" is now a blatant lie?

1. There is no 350 million pounds a week lost to the EU. That is a vast exaggeration that does not take into account rebates and Union funding. The real figure of membership fees sent to the Union was only around a 3rd of this incorrect claim.

2. Saying that all of this money will now go to the NHS is equally proposterous. Nige already debunked that not even 2 hours after the results were in. And to argue that it wasn't a lie because he personally didn't say it is pretty facetious. Farage, even more so than Johnson, has been the prominent Leave politician. You and I both know that not a single voter differentiates between these Leave campaign factions. None of them make the distinction between Vote Leave and Leave EU. Both work together, cooperated and campaigned jointly, making little to no distinction between the two of them. To now claim that "oh yeah, but it was the OTHER Leave faction who said this, not me so can't accuse me of lying" after deliberately and knowingly condoning these talking points for weeks is despicable. I've never been the biggest fan of Juncker, but at least the man has the balls to come out the day before the referendum and say that he doesn't see there being a better deal for the UK when those claims are being made by Remainers. It's something populist cowards like Farage could take an example of.

Leave said there would be hundreds of millions a week that they'd spend directly on the NHS. It's probably the main reason that drove tens of thousands of elderly, sick, caretakers or people employed in the health care sector to vote Leave. Now, we see the reluctant admittance that there's absolutely no intention of spending all of that money "saved" on the NHS. It's a blatant lie for the sole purpose of misleading gullible people into voting for them. They'll let it calm down first, of course, and hope the people will forget (which they will). And in a few months or years, the people who were led to believe that there would be an additional hundreds of millions of pounds going directly to the NHS every single week will likely be left in the cold, as the amount of money saved has been exaggerated and won't all be going to the NHS.

So on top of a potential Scottish independence referendum, Irish parties are now calling for a referendum to reunite Ireland.

Your "concerns" are appreciated, thank you. Point is, we survived before the EU, and we're more than capable of surviving after it. I just find it absolutely hysterical how you Remain supporters are acting like hell fire is going to rain down on Britain just for daring to vote against the EU.

I'm glad you're so confident and hope it works out well. While I disagree with the outcome of the vote, I am not so petty as to insult or undermine others.

I'm not insulting you, just clarifying the situation. Clearly you aren't used to experiencing a democratic verdict before.

It's almost as if I wasn't talking about you at all, but top tier assumptions.

HAHAHAHAHAHA GET ABSOLUTELY FUCKED FLEE

No need to gloat. I just feel concerned for the people in the UK. This will likely have little to no consequences for me personally. I just hope the same can be said for Britain. The country's more divided than ever and there are very uncertain times ahead.

It wasn't really necessary to make a 17 minute video of infantile insults when all SoA did was use an incorrect study.

I'm not even a massive Sargon fan, I actually think he just uses the "i'm a left wing lolberal I'll have you know" card to thinly veil his conservatism when he could just easily say he's a conservative, and his conspiratorial 30 minute videos of how supposedly dangerous tumblrinas are is pretty laughable. That being said, there's nothing really substantive about this video other than the fact it's 17 minutes of smarmy character attacks.

why is the right so concerned about such short video lengths

i'm used to watching videos that are hours long, and you can't handle a coffee break-tier discussion

where is this small attention span rooted
