David Cameron resigns, saying, "I do not think it would be right for me to be the captain that steers our country to its next destination." Isn't that what the captain of the Exxon Valdez said when he grounded the ship and caused one of the worst environmental disasters ever?
Having willingly led Britain into this destruction, he just rides off into the sunset. Remember, it was his choice, his idea, to have this referendum; it was not something that ever had to happen. But he needed to keep his right flank in line and to somehow reduce the power of UKIP in order to win re-election and the referendum was how he did that. David Cameron put his own political fortunes before the well-being of the country and he lost. And now Britons will pay for his selfishness for years to come. Thanks David.
Scotland and Northern Ireland voted strongly to stay in the EU and they are already making noises about leaving the UK to re-join the EU. And you can be sure that there will be another country taking this same vote on the European mainland sometime soon. David Cameron could very well go down in history as the man who precipitated the dissolution of the United Kingdom and the European Union. What a legacy.
