People voted to leave this version of the EU.

David Cameron based in London was completely out of touch with people living outside London and he was only a few hundred miles away. He conveyed his view to the other EU leaders, who because they were even further away, relied on his information and were, like him, completely shocked by the outcome.

The desire to punish the UK is caused by the EU leaders' fear that similar referenda and similar outcomes may occur in other EU countries, something they wish to deter.

Europe is a bubbling cauldron and if EU leaders try to put a lid on opposition expressed by voters and continue to apply the heat by ignoring their views there will be a devastating social explosion across the EU.

If the EU leaders think they have got it right, they should be brave enough to call referenda in their own countries and see what their people's true feelings are. I suspect there will be similar differences throughout the EU.

The EU leaders ignored the success of anti-EU parties in the Euro elections. That was the first warning. The outcome of the UK EU referendum is the second warning. David Cameron called for reform but was ignored and the deal offered by the EU was derisory as it totally ignored voters' wishes.

Many Leave voters do not really wish to leave the EU but the current arrangements give them no choice. If the EU had been more flexible and had taken a step back from their present course I believe the outcome of the vote could have been very different.

The EU press for freedom of movement but that is a myth. All countries have laws barring even their own citizens never mind foreign nationals from certain areas of their country. The poor and the young cannot buy houses in nice areas. Many of the developments approved by the rich have a greater adverse effects on the poor. As the EU piles on more and more misery is it any wonder that those affected feel neglected and resentful?

No country has the resources to cope with a massive influx of foreign nationals and I am sure that Leave voters would accept greater freedom of movement within limits set by their national governments because they know better what the problems are and what resources are available to solve them. Bear in mind that many voters voted to leave because of the UK's failure to solve massive problems in housing, health, employment, education etc. and EU rules were making the situation worse.

I think David Cameron should be recalled as PM as I feel that he and Lord Hill have a lot to offer and are in a much stronger position than they were before. I also think that David Cameron and Boris Johnson should be reconciled as friends working together for a better UK and a better EU.

If the EU is brave enough to carry out the reforms it knows it must make I am sure that we could come up with a solution that 100% of UK voters would support by living inside a revised version of the EU which benefits all EU countries not just the UK. Crucially it would be listening and paying regard to the views of ALL EU citizens.

Such a solution is a win-win situation for everyone and is a process of healing overcoming differences proving that we really are in this together.
