Founded in 1969, the Campaign for an Independent Britain (CIBUK) stated that they have recruited “a team of experienced professionals and seasoned campaigners, all heavily involved in the referendum campaign of 2015-16.”
Writing for pro-Leave EU fact-checking website Facts4EU, CIBUK argues that the “defeated Remain campaign has morphed into a subtle but persistent purveyor of false facts and myths designed to take the UK back into the EU.”
The group claim that they have made a significant contribution to ensuring Britain’s exit from the EU over the last 50 years.
They add: “CIBUK is non-partisan and is dedicated to freedom, independence and sovereignty.
“We must be in no doubt that there continue to be forces ranged against us which are very well-funded.
“These not only include the campaigns to re-join the EU but also encompass other threats to our personal freedoms, such as those advocating the ‘cancel culture’ prevalent in so many of our educational and other institutions.”
CIBUK intend to prepare a “major campaign” to promote evidence that Brexit was the right choice for Britain, going up against UK organisations they believe receive over £500,000 in funding.
