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.

The lies that brought us the greatest act of economic self-harm, need to be exposed. Thanks Byline for doing what our broken, arguably complicit media refused to do.

This disaster has caused me endless personal pain. Partly that’s knowing of all the young people whose academic and professional lives have been blighted by the insufferable moral failure and the political careerism at the heart of this national failure. As a young doctor I spent a year training in France, at the end of it I was bilingual and had my entire outlook on medicine and people transformed. Something I will never forget or cease being thankful for. And now we’ve disgracefully walked away from our friends and neighbours. Unbelievable, simply unbelievable. Best wishes with the documentary. I hope you get a good audience.

Well done, Mike; tell it the way it is. The issue of Brexit is beyond mere politics - for UK culture and commerce, it's existential!

The general public needs to be made aware of the detrimental effects of Brexit instead of just being gaslighted as they are now.

I am delighted that, finally, the views of the 48% are being represented in this film. Brexit has a taboo status: neither the Tories nor the Labour party ever mention it, creating the false impression that a huge majority of the population voted in favour of leaving the EU. They blame the looming recession on Covid, Putin's war on Ukraine and global inflation, completely discarding any mention of Brexit as a major contributory factor in our current economic crisis. Brexit has been nothing short of a catastrophe for the UK.

This documentary could be the beginning of the end of Brexit - the most fatal self-inflicted harm in our history.
