I am sure we can all pick on one data point and claim an entire raft of things have been debunked.

It's fair to say the concerns were overblown, as were the upsides presented by the leave campaigns. The official government prediction is that Brexit will not free up any money for the treasury, in fiscal year 2019/20 even if we contribute nothing to the EU budget the treasury will be out of pocket.

Likewise the talk of mass unemployment hasn't happened.

What has happened seems to be a much less extreme version of the remain campaign's forecast so far.

Sterling is running on expectation of an interest rate rise right now. Besides, we have all been told it was massively over-valued and needed the devaluation to benefit our exporters?
