If the Economy was really a 'slam dunk' for the Leave campaign then the referendum will already have been won for them. It's not as if it's a love of the EU and is keeping Remain level in the polling or if immigration is a strong point for the Remain campaign either. It's evidently not the case the economy is a 'slam dunk' for leave.
Plenty of economists and organisations have said the opposite as well.

Polling suggests that the public currently believe it's risk too:

I am not saying this can't be turned around by Leave but it's simply wrong to suggest that if this were decided on the economy that it's a slam dunk for Leave. I am curious as to why you think Remain even stand a chance if you believe this to be the case because I can't see what else they have.
