Because almost exactly half has voted to remain. Worse still, ALL of Scotland voted to stay, whereas virtually ALL of England voted to leave. The pound has fallen to its lowest level against the dollar since 1985.<\/p>\n<p>Let\u2019s just look at that again: <strong>the pound is at its lowest value since 1985.<\/strong> It has seen it\u2019s biggest one-day fall. Ever. It is at a 30-year low \u2013 thanks in large part to people who weren\u2019t born that long ago. The stock exchange is currently on its way down in sympathy. So well done, Brexiters, this is what the future will be like \u2013 and it is all your fault.<\/p>\n<p>David Cameron must step down as a result of the unmitigated disaster he has caused. Indeed, he has announced he will do so in October. Quite frankly, you have to wonder if the Queen is considering a charge of treason against him \u2013 the skewed result will inevitably lead to Scotland demanding another vote on independence. Mind you, if the right-wing propaganda machine is even half right, she was a Brexiter and deserves as much credit as Cameron for this catastrophe.<\/p>\n<p>This has been a perfect example of democracy at work. It has also been a perfect example of why democracy <strong>doesn\u2019t<\/strong> work. A result this close could have been decided by the toss of a coin, yet the extreme skew between England and Scotland is about as anti-Scottish as you can get.<img decoding=\"async\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 524px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 524\/325;background-image: none; float: left; padding-top: 0px; padding-left: 0px; margin: 5px 10px 5px 0px; display: inline; padding-right: 0px; border: 0px;\" title=\"The day Cameron gave Scotland its independence\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.diaryofanadi.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/eu_2.gif\" alt=\"The day Cameron gave Scotland its independence\" width=\"524\" height=\"325\" align=\"left\" border=\"0\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" \/><\/p>\n<p>But we\u2019d better get used to skews, because our lives will be full of them now that the lunatics have taken over the asylum.<\/p>\n<p>The referendum should never have been held. The only purpose of having it was to get Cameron into No. 10. Ironically, it has now got him out. The simple fact is that the choice should never have been given to a people too stupid to put away their flags and make the right choice.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oh my God!
