Brexiters lie. It's what they do.

As did the Remainers & "Project Fear".

Project Fear was a name the Leave campaigners came up with to try to
discredit the facts they had no answer to.

Given many were predictions of possible outcomes, it seems a bit strong
to call them "facts".

Much of it seemed like an exercise in cold reading - throw out a quick
succession of possible outcomes, and hope that people will only bother
to remember the ones that turn out to have some truth.

The "project fear" name did highlight what turned out to be a deciding
factor, that this decision would (unusually) be made on a wide range of
issues, and not just on the likely economic effects.
