Brexit campaigns show bizarre similarity with Kenyan politics

The just-concluded UK referendum on whether to stay or leave the European Union bears an uncanny similarity between the British political class and the much-maligned Kenyan political establishment.

For one, the Exit campaigns were majorly founded on half-truths meant to scare the populace into opting out of the union.  This is similar to the scene in Kenya in 2005 when the country was put to a vote to determine the place of a suggested constitution.
