Notes printed by pro-EU group Bath for Europe display
Boris Johnson and Jacob Rees-Mogg’s faces
They won’t buy you much, but two anti-Brexit fake banknotes claiming to be from the “Bank of
Brexit lies” and declaring themselves to be “for the privileged few” have been deemed of such historical value they have been added to the collection of the
British Museum.
The banknotes, produced by a pro-EU group in Bath, have been doctored to carry the faces of Boris Johnson and Jacob Rees-Mogg. The Johnson design, based on a £10 note, carries the slogan: “I promise not to pay the NHS the sum of £350m pounds”, while the “£50 guinea” Rees-Mogg version declares: “I promise to pay myself more than you”, and carries the fake motto: “Arrogantus Toffo Posterium”.
