The official designated campaign for leaving the EU is called Vote Leave. You can find their arguments at their website http://www.voteleavetakecontrol.org/.

The official designated campaign for remaining in the EU is called Britain Stronger in Europe. You can find their arguments at their website http://www.strongerin.co.uk/.
