watch the video great one about facts
Really interesting - and scary. Here's the direct video link

Deals very directly and succinctly with the 'sovereignty' issue.
He's clearly very frustrated that people are ignoring the experts - comparing Leave to Creationism is quite strong.
He deals with suggestion of bias but I suspect people will still reject his authority.
Brexit would decimate research funding - we get far more in grants from the ERC than any other country.
Never considered the fact that we've got no trade negotiators. I wonder how we would handle negotiating 70+ new trade deals at once.
He makes an interesting point that tariffs are actually relatively easy to deal with compared to regulatory barriers.
Overwhelming expert consensus and large volumes of evidence are only any good if you're interested in making an informed decision though - and perhaps too many people just aren't. It seems like more of a gut reaction to reject the status quo
