No when they say that the economy will take a hit for example.
It is bound to but it won't be anywhere like they say. They use the worse case scenarios.
When they say there will be trade with UK countries.
Of course there will but it won't be as easy as some are saying.

They know this. Again it's a case of embellishing the truth. The cost is £350 million a week but when you take things like the rebate and other funding into account it's more like £170 million. That's still a lot of candy. The problem leave has is will that money go to cover what the EU gives in funding? £88 million I believe.
But it isn't just what we send to the EU is it? There are other costs like keeping the MEPs. Hotels or accommodation for them. Their expenses. The costs of conferences to name but a few things.

Immigration Rises 'Significantly' Again, ONS Figures Reveal, Despite Government's Promise To Slash Numbers
The figures mean that the Prime Minister and Home Secretary, who pledged to slash net migration to below 100,000 by the election, have officially failed to fulfill that pledge.

And this is only the start. It will keep rising. If the referendum was decided on immigration we would leave on June 23rd IMHO.
