Boris and Cameron at war over 'Project Fact'
Cameron says only project he's interested in is 'Project Fact', but Boris Johnson calls it 'baloney'
Asked about claims the "in" campaign had launched "Project Fear" to fight a negative battle over the polls, David Cameron denied the accusation and said he was only interested in 'Project Fact.'
He told an audience in Ipswich today: "Project Fact is about saying stay and you know what you get. Leave, and you're taking a gamble with people's lives".
He added: "This is not about raising concerns and worries which aren't there - they are real concerns and worries based on fact."
But Boris Johnson described project Fact as "baloney".
He told LBC: "There is an attempt going on to scare people into staying with the status quo, when I think the real risk is that we will simply remain in a system that is less and less suitable to our needs and its time for the UK to have the courage to strike a new series of views.
Asked if he believed the facts supported him, he replied: " I do."
