(1) More money for the NHS
(2) More money for farmers
(3) More money for scientists
(4) More money in your pocket
(5) And scrapping VAT on fuel bills and tampons
(6) No EU beneficiaries left worse-off
(7) And no short-term economic disruption
(8) We’ll get brand new trade deals all over the world

(9) There’ll be no damage to trade with the EU
(10) Or our cooperation with the EU
(11) Guaranteed in a treaty which we’ll sort out before 2020
(12) Which won’t have any obligation to follow EU law
(13) We’ll cut immigration
(14) With a new system in place by 2020
(15) That doesn’t favour EU citizens
(16) But which gives Irish citizens total free access
(17) And stronger border controls
(18) But no controls on the Northern Irish land border with the EU
(19) And the union with Scotland will be stronger than ever
