MISLEADING SLOGANS [3] "LEAVE MEANS LEAVE"

In this podcast, we unpack the common rhetorical phrase employed by no-deal brexiteers, "leave means leave".

The implication is that there is only one outcome of invoking and implementing Article 50 which would withdraw the UK from all its treaty obligations with the EU. The fact is that the terms "brexit" and "leave" denote a wide range of possibilities which need to be considered as to their probable outcomes and evaluated more generally. [Free. 30 minutes.]
