As Britain heads towards a no deal exit from the European Union, let us remember how Brexiteers described Brexit to the public — all in six quotes:

1. "There is no plans for a no deal because we're going to get a great deal."

(Boris Johnson, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom and Compulsive Liar, 2017)

2. "The free trade agreement that we will have to do with the European Union should be one of the easiest in human history."

(Liam Fox, Former Secretary of State for International Trade and now Irrelevant Politician, 2017)

3. "I never promised it would be a huge success."

(Nigel Farage, Ardent Brexiteer and Professional Shit-Stirrer)

4. "The day after we vote leave, we hold all the cards..."

(Michael Gove, Duchy of Lancaster and Oleaginous Snake, 2016)

5. "It is like threading the eye of a needle. If you have a good eye and a steady hand, it is easy enough."

(David Davis, Former Secretary of State for Exiting the European Union and Hopeless Negotiator)

6. "Without our EU budget contributions, we could give everybody a 60 per cent council tax cut."

(Daniel Hannan, Former Member of European Parliament and World-Class Pillock)
