How many times can we spend a fictional £350m per week? How many manipulations and lies can Leave make about the EU. Let’s see if we can find as many examples as possible: (please feel free to add & share) #realprojectfear #BrexitLies #FakeNews
1. - The ‘original’ and the ‘biggest’ hard pressed : let’s spend it on our NHS instead - “Enough to build a new NHS hospital every 7 days!” Complete with NHS logo - (Not an NHS approved message) TRUTH: NO Extra funding for the NHS from leaving the EU. 
2. £350m isn’t going to the NHS but that doesn’t stop Leave from simultaneously claiming it could go to support the U.K. steel industry. (This targeted add would presumably have gone down well in the parts of areas impacted by industrial decline, a cruel lie) TRUTH: NO £350m P/W
3. Floods!!! Leaving the EU will stop floods!!! The Real Project Fear offered £350m per week to stop floods... just don’t tell the Steel industry or NHS, (micro targeted ads mean it’s a secret)
Imagine saying you voted Leave for better flood defences (people would laugh) Cruel

4. Save the Polar Bear! TRUTH: Related to an incident you can read here m.spiegel.de/international/… Shows the EU power & UK outside EU alone can’t save the polar bear! Fighting inside the EU for positive environmental standards united will have a much bigger impact
5. TRUTH: Spanish bullfighting is cruel but it’s a Spanish issue in the same was as Fox hunting is a U.K. issue! Spain is a SOVEREIGN nation! The U.K. is also a SOVEREIGN nation!
6. “Our animals”TRUTH: the U.K. is still in control of our own animal welfare (see 5.) & has influence on animal welfare across the EU & beyond due to EU influence.
Animal lovers care for “All Animals” not just “OURS” Chlorinated Chicken or Hormone objected beef Mr Trump?

7. No Tea! TRUTH: No doubt someone will show me some EU proposal to reduce Co2 (polar bear haters seen quite keen on saving the environment) but I’m willing to safely bet that Europeans will still be drinking Tea 100 years from now... NEXT...
9. Sounds bad! God dam EU forcing Quotas! TRUTH: EU gets US media giants to make more of their content in European countries! (How they managed to do this is a mystery since the EU is also very weak and unable to stand up to US multinationals) <Sarcasm> c21media.net/eu-agrees-stre…
10. I’m drained looking at these but am willing to bet it wasn’t evil and was probably very helpful 😴😴😴 next...
11. TURKEY!!!!! Borders with IRAQ & SYRIA!!!! Jesus people this is scary shit! Throw in an NHS worker for good measure!!! (Project Hope is looking pretty fearful to me!)
12. Pressure on Workers rights & Unions !!! (I kid you not!)
TRUTH: well don’t take my word for it...
The Unite Union says it better than I can!
TRUTH: well don’t take my word for it...
The Unite Union says it better than I can!
13. If you didn’t get shown 12 you might have been shown 13... the EU us not only putting pressure on workers rights it’s also stopping business from being unleashed! What welfare and environmental standards we need unleashing from is anyone’s guess.
14. more money for the NHS again! If a lies worth saying it’s worth repeating!
15. More scary stuff about Turkey!!! See point 14 about lies and repeating them
16. Throw in some scary posters! Project ‘Hope’
17. And they were from the official campaign 👆👆👆 (the ones who were the “respectable” gloves on officials campaign) some of those ads were sent out the day after Jo Cox was murdered by an extremist fearful of Muslims. These were just some Leave.EU ones 👇👇👇
19. But sick of “project fear” the U.K. chosen project “hope” or would that be Leave.EU “project Fantasy”
TRUTH: trade deals are looking unlikely and ones sided, the UK economy slowing before we even leave
TRUTH: trade deals are looking unlikely and ones sided, the UK economy slowing before we even leave
21. And whilst that’s going on don’t forget to pick up your copy of the Sun, Mail or Express for more “project hope”
TRUTH: Not likely here 👇👇👇
TRUTH: Not likely here 👇👇👇
22. Oh I forgot £350m for Farmers (don’t tell the NHS, the Steel Workers or people wanting Flood Defences in Yorkshire)
Of course this fake news about the EU is nothing new... but WE the people knew what they voted for... because the politicians, the press and social media told us! blogs.ec.europa.eu/ECintheUK/euro…
And of course we will all be better off! (This DUP add was targeted at precisely Zero people in Northern Ireland).
TRUTH: falling £, rising inflation, slowing economy, a Government stockpiling food and medicine.
