Goal

UPDATE DEC 9: We blasted through our goal in two days and through our stretch goal of £90,000 in less than two weeks. Thank you! 


We're now in the process of making this documentary - booking and recording interviews, researching and collecting archive content. 


We don't want to miss anything, so if you have links to case studies, graphics, news or interview archive footage from the UK or Europe please share it with us at brexitdoc@byline.tv



Since its inception, Brexit has become one of the most critical and divisive issues in British politics. But how did it happen? And what is the real, substantive impact it's had on the UK?


That's what we want to examine in the most comprehensive documentary ever made about Brexit.

 
Byline TV has already travelled around the country reporting on the fallout from Brexit, and reached millions of viewers. Now we are going bigger, making the definitive record on Brexit - something that can be seen around the world and set the record straight. But we don’t have the money the BBC does or corporate donors, just you.


To make a comprehensive, unimpeachable, fifty minute, globally distributable documentary is expensive. We need around £50,000 to cover all the costs and you can read more about where that will go below. So please, help us make this vital, game changing documentary, and donate to the project.




We're looking to raise £50,000 to make a 50 minute documentary on Brexit, exploring the forces that made it happen, how it went wrong, the damage it's done and how we can come back from it.


Your donation will go towards equipment costs, travel for a crew around the UK and to Europe, research, location hire, video editing and motion graphics designers to make this the most comprehensive documentary on Brexit ever made.

Not only will all donors get to watch the finished documentary for free, but we're also offering the following perks depending on the amount donated.


£5: Your name in the credits

£100: An Associate Producer credit
£250: An Associate Producer credit, plus a virtual screening of the film with Mike and the team.
£500: An Executive Producer opening credit plus a private screening of the film
£1000: All of the above plus an intimate drinks reception with the team.

*Any repeat donations will be counted as one donation for the purpose of awarding perks. 


*BylineTV+ members will get access to the film included in their membership. Please donate today to receive donor perks.


You can also help us to achieve our goals!

Best of luck. Brexit was a con. A Conservative Con. Where are they all now they've reeked havoc on this nation.... on YouTube trying to invest your money... most likely offshore!

Brexit was a con and has done this country terrible damage - the story needs to be told.

About time too! Plenty of material, that’s for sure from The David Davies dossier to the latest Led by Donkeys film. They have done a beautiful exposé of the role of the so-called think tanks around Tufton Street. Good Luck!

I agree. This is a hugely important project - never more graphically demonstrated than in the great self-harming Truss/Kwarteng budget that spooked the bond markets and crashed the economy. Brexit was not the immediate cuase but in the longer term contributed to the vulnerability of the British economy and produced the naive arrogance that led to Truss and her budget in the first place.

A film to document the tragic Brexit betrayal of the people of the United Kingdom by sleazy tax dodgers & disaster capitalists will at least in some small way set the record straight. We are all living through a sad and demeaning chapter in British history brought about by the lies of billionaires and self-interested politicians. Vile stuff
