Maybe, but people choose what they want to believe and so often it's the snake oil salesmen... <snip>

We need to outsmart the liars.

An interesting and almost certainly an accurate comment, but at the risk of finding myself with a bulk delivery of downvotes do you apply this comment to both sides of the Brexit debate or perhaps just the "leave" side?

One of the most noticeable features of the debate (insofar as it is a debate) post referendum is that the arguments in favour of remain seem to consist mainly of ad hominem criticism of those who voted to leave rather than clear arguments in favour of staying in.

I would argue that self - delusion (or at the very least elements of self - delusion) exists on both sides of any division such as this.
