Wetherspoon boss Sir Tim Martin on Brexit, his successor and how he lost £100m | Boardroom Uncovered

Sir Tim Martin, the founder and chairman of pub giant JD Wetherspoon, has opened up about the impact being such a prominent campaigner for Brexit has had on him and whether he thinks he actually made a difference in the debate. The businessman became a household name during the 2016 referendum campaign thanks to his passionate and full-throated advocacy for the UK's exit from the EU. His stance saw him featured heavily in the media ahead of the vote and in its aftermath, attracting both supporters and detractors alike. In the latest episode of City A.M.'s on-camera interview series, Boardroom Uncovered, Sir Tim Martin explains to our UK editor, Jon Robinson, at THG Studios, about the impact putting his head above the parapet had on him and his company, which included the resignations of two board directors.
