What the Leave campaigners say:

Tory MP Boris Johnson: "A vote to Remain will be taken in Brussels as a green light for more federalism, and for the erosion of democracy." (Daily Telegraph, March 2016)

Ukip leader Nigel Farage: "The more exposure I get, those that would never vote for me anyway get angrier and angrier. But amongst the undecideds, no. I can persuade them. I am a voice that can sway some of those undecideds." (February 2016)
