Three million people have watched the @FT Brexit Effect film

No platform for those who might distort the truth

Just the facts: how leaving the EU hit the UK economy

And stories from businesses struggling with #Brexitreality

We need an honest debate

Thank you @theJeremyVine for playing this on your @BBCRadio2 show & rightly so. #Brexit was built on lies - the dreadful situation at #Dover is due to Brexit. Time for other broadcasters to report facts, call out the liars & expose #BrexitReality
