The Government doesn't have a majority in Parliament to do anything so we need to have an election, after that hopefully Corbyn will disappear of the face of the earth.
That's an interesting interpretation.

The people voting was not the end of the story, it was the beginning and that was well known. Referenda are to advise government/parliament.

Executing this has proven to be a nightmare, which it was always going to be.

I'm fine with leaving, provided it delivers benefits in the not too distant future. Hard to see how that will happen though.

Personally, I think it would be shrewd to negotiate reform now, with the UK staying in. This could deal with some of the negatives that led people to want to leave. Sadly there's too much entrenchment I suspect!
