Robert Halfon: Mythbusting Common Market 2.0

It would increase our power to control freedom of movement, plus our laws and finances – and deliver on the referendum result.

Daniel Hannan: That Brexit film works as drama. But it doesn’t as history. I should know. I was there.

Daniel Hannan: Leave.EU and Arron Banks – the Brexiteers that the Remain campaign loved
