Change Britain is a cross-party pressure group committed to ensuring a British withdrawal from the European Union following the 2016 referendum. The organisation was founded as a successor to the successful Vote Leave campaign, with support from many of its key figureheads including Labour MP Gisela Stuart (Chair) and Conservative MP and Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson.[1] The group has attracted criticism for dropping Vote Leave's pledge to increase spending on the NHS.[2]
