BBC Radio 4 - More or Less, The Referendum by Numbers - Omnibus: Part 2

Tim Harford fact-checks the vital statistics from the EU referendum debate.

If it seems the EU referendum debate just involves two politicians shouting contradictory statistics at each other - then we are here to help. In this programme, Tim Harford gives you a break from the politicians and picks through the statistical crime scene of the debate looking for the truth. Bracing concept, isn't it? He'll be looking at all of the big questions - the cost of the EU, immigration, lawmaking, regulations and trade. 2/2.
