If I was a Leave supporter I would be worried about what happens next. There will be a attempt to stop it happening. I think via a General Election where Remain is put on the ballot.
I wonder what will happen to the Tories too. The problem for a victory for Leave as far as Boris is concerned (I think Gove is honest in his desire to Leave) is that this anti-elitism, anti-politics, wave he is surfing will claim him eventually too. If we Leave would he really want to be the one in charge of a fractious Tory party and have to get the deals he has said we would get? I have a feeling some sacrificial lamb will become Tory leader after Cameron in that case. |
It wouldn't surprise me at all. The EU has form on not accepting results they don't like and if enough of the movers and shakers on both sides of the Channel get together maybe they will seek to move the goalposts. It's going to be messy within HMG and Labour too - a lot's been said and done which isn't soon going to be forgotten.
