Regarding the debate, Deutsch later commented: <blockquote>"In Britain there is a clear path if you have a grievance, you can join a pressure-group, the pressure-group will pressure the government, or you can see your MP, and the MP will see the grievance building up, and so-on. Whereas, Europe is structured in such a way that it's very difficult to know whom to address your grievance to, or what they could do about it."<ref name=cummings /></blockquote> Deutsch was not involved in any campaign advocacy for Brexit. His public remarks on the subject were quoted by Cummings and Gove on their own initiative, as Deutsch later made clear.<ref name="cummings">{{Cite AV media |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdtssXITXuE |title=David Deutsch on Brexit and Error Correction |date=2019-12-04 |last=Joe Boswell |access-date=2024-05-24 |via=YouTube |quote=had absolutely no effect on the campaign}}</ref>{{rp|00:28}}<ref name="gove">{{Cite AV media |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdtssXITXuE |title=David Deutsch on Brexit and Error Correction |date=2019-12-04 |last=Joe Boswell |access-date=2024-05-24 |via=YouTube |quote=No-one was more surprised than I.}}</ref>{{rp|00:10}}
