Government | OpinionBritons' vote result on the 24th June 2016 is to leave the European Union. Whilst I may personally agree with the vote result, it is more pleasing that a government headed by David Cameron and who is against the idea of leaving the European Union agrees with the referendum result and calls for it to be heeded and respected - and to "make it work" - a message to his successor given he will resign in a few months. It is true that his position has become untenable given his desire to remain in the EU. This is not a victory of one side over another, especially
given the result, it is a result for what the majority of people want and that is all you can ask for.
I hope that the parliament does not try to walk around the leave vote and try and maintain ties with the EU for goods, people, services and capital (
single market), as these are what people voted to leave for - the conditions imposed on them by EU membership.
David Cameron is to be applauded and personally I think
it is a shame to see him go. Whatever happens now, the majority cannot complain as the
result is what they asked for.
