A public enquiry into "£350m per week sent to EU" claim which mislead electorate
the Leave campaign said we send £350m p/w to the EU, & that money would be better spent on the NHS. It was the main thrust of the campaign. Post referendum Nigel Farage said this was an incorrect claim. UKIP Election leaflets from the last general election made the same claim.
