Guide to in and out facts
A number of people have expressed a wish to check the facts thrown out by both sides of the EU referendum debate.
There is a good piece in this week's Economist on this at
http://www.economist.com/news/britain/21693943-voters-want-facts-about-britain-and-european-unionbut-these-are-elusive-out-find-fib?force=scn/tw/te/pr/ed/inoutfindafibtoshout
The online version includes links to several quite good websites on the subject. They ask
"What should undecided or poorly informed voters do?
Fortunately, there are some good sources they can turn to. Two websites, the broadly neutral fullfact.org and the pro-EU infacts.org, both puncture myths in the debate. The House of Commons library produces excellent reports, which are available online. And a group of academics led by Anand Menon of King’s College, London, have set up “The UK in a Changing Europe”, financed by the Economic and Social Research Council, which has a lively website."
The European Referendum page at fullfact.org is here, and Infacts is here.
