As leader of the official leave campaign, Cummings was responsible for the now-infamous ‘£350 million for the NHS’ lie printed on the side of the leave campaign bus, as well as for equally misleading posters about the Turkey joining the EU (the UK has a veto on new members and Turkey is at least a decade away from even being eligible for membership).
