The means are there, the will less so, but it will come.
Parliament is in a panic and are trying to weasel thier way out of the referendum, turning on eachother in a flurry of betrayal and blame. But I know it cannot last, for there is near guarenteed 10+ million votes up for grabs for the men who stand up and say "I will try to make this work" and a position as one of the top Prime Ministers in history for the man who does the deed. If the current crop of politicians wont discard thier old dreams of european integration and take the opportunity in front of them they will be swept out by those who will at the next elections.
Maybe I am being optimistic, but I believe it will happen because all signs point to the people being goddamn sick to death of the kick-the-can politics of the last two decades.
If only I twenty years older ten times braver and a thousand times wiser.
