The split between pro and anti-EU Tory MPs widened even further yesterday, after the Treasury claimed that a Brexit would lower GDP by 6.2 per cent by 2030, due to reduced investment from the EU and higher trade barriers.

Here are 6 MPs who didn’t hold back yesterday, it looks like all out civil war in the Conservative ranks. Regardless of the EU referendum decision, can the party recover after they have torn lumps out of each other?

Here are the six quotes that merged after the Chancellor’s statement yesterday.

Boris Johnson MP: “The Treasury has not been totally successful in all its economic forecast, let’s be honest.”

Steve Baker MP: “If that (Osborne’s speech) is the hammer blow to remain in the EU, with all its disadvantages, then he’s got a pathetic case. The spin he’s put in it is outrageous.”

Dominic Raab MP: “The report lacks any credibility. It’s obviously a flawed. Partisan report.”

Kwasi Kwarteng MP: “It’s such a childish debate. Anyone who thinks an economic prediction of 14 years’ time will be accurate needs their head examined.”

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.
