Take back control is a British political slogan associated with the Brexit referendum, popularised by Vote Leave. It was used by supporters of Brexit, Britain's withdrawal from the European Union. The slogan implied that Britain's sovereignty and ability to make its own laws would return after withdrawal, and was associated with anti-immigration sentiment.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
