MP withdraws support for 'Out' campaign over EU argument

A senior lawmaker in Britain's ruling Conservative Party said on Thursday she was withdrawing her support for a campaign to leave the European Union over its "shameful" argument that an exit would boost funding for health. In a blow to the "Out" campaign, which has been gaining in polls before a referendum on EU membership on June 23, lawmaker Sarah Wollaston said leaders of Vote Leave had "knowingly placed a financial lie at the heart of their campaign".
