The infighting between different anti-European groups vividly demonstrates the chaos that would follow a British exit from the European Union, says Business for New Europe. The pro-European business campaign was commenting on reports today that eurosceptic groups were arguing over which would lead the referendum campaign, and also today's speech by Nigel Farage.

Lucy Thomas, Campaign Director of Business for New Europe, said:

“The confusion between the various groups vying to lead the out campaign shows just how much chaos there would be if they got their way and took Britain out of Europe. If they can’t even agree which of them is in charge, how can they ask the British people to trust them with our future?”  

 

“As Nigel Farage has said, he has been waiting a lifetime for this referendum, but he’s only just woken up to the fact that his own side believe he is a liability not an asset.  

 

“In this referendum campaign, the choice facing Britain is about our country’s future and our place in the world. While the out camp squabble about Nigel Farage’s role, the British people want a serious fact-led debate about their future.”
