  Its interesting that when we talk about the referendum vote and the mood of MPs it is somehow wrong of them to want to oppose the "will of the people" by which we mean those who voted Leave; but it is somehow ok for MPs in the Labour Party to oppose the will of those who voted Corbyn in as leader by a much larger majority.
  
  It appears for many in the UK, including those in positions of power and influence, that "democracy" is a moveable feast.
  
  On a more specific point, whatever the Tories end up negotiating as the terms for leaving the EU it will ultimately destroy them as a political force as the compromises they will make will be unacceptable to all factions within their "broad church" and potentially to the wider electorate. In parallel the Labour party is likely to split in two due to the clear idealogical differences between the broader party membership and the PLP, These two things together will lead us to a long series of coalition governments as the second tier parties (UKIP, Lib Dems & the Nationalists) are either busted flushes or geographically limited so cannot on their own garner sufficient support to create a majority government.
  
  Brexit should be an opportunity to genuinely solve the real problems this nation faces not the symptoms that the media and politicians want you to focus on, however with the paucity of imagination that is rife amongst all our current parties and politicians it will sadly be a missed opportunity.
