This Brexit chaos is founded on the forgotten lies of our leaders. Let’s remind the country of them with giant billboards and more

When we started out a few months ago we were four friends who wanted to highlight the hypocrisy of our politicians on Brexit.
Armed with a ladder, roller brush and a treasure trove of damning statements by our leaders, we flyposted their biggest lies on billboards around the country.
With our generous partners taking care of the kids in the evenings we went out and pasted up these posters ourselves. But there was only so much we could do on our own.
That’s when we decided to go legit and setup a crowdfunder to see if together we could raise the funds to put these quotes up across the country. And we have, in a big way.
Since then we’ve bought hundreds of billboards across the country (they cost on average about £1,000 each) and generated countless media stories and conversations across the nation about how we got to this crisis.
But we haven’t just stopped at billboards. We’ve chased Nigel Farage with advans, projected onto the White Cliffs of Dover, launched viral websites and unfurled an 800sqm banner in Parliament Square.
And we’re just getting started.
The more we can raise, the more we can do. It’s that simple.
We all have family, friends and loved ones who voted Leave. Many of them believed the words of these politicians.
By putting up their quotes in creative ways we can all compare the promises made with reality.
Let's cut through today's chaos by showing our fellow citizens that this Brexit failure was founded on lies and hypocrisy.
Huge thanks for being an essential part of it,
