England has a lot to answer for

It was a scenario all too familiar for those of us that wanted to Remain: An uninspired and rather formless campaign that relied more on hope and fear than solid fact and the ability to press obvious advantages.

The end result was shocking: An exit from Europe and the resignation of the leader.
