People are really, really hoping this theory about David Cameron and Brexit is true.

'As the dust settles on the EU referendum battleground, some 33 million voters await with bated breath to see what the victors will do now that the nation has spoken to leave.

around the corner that either no one has thought of, or materializes when a few possibilities actually occur. I do believe it is questionable that Britain will walk away from the EU. They might extract a few concessions, that others want as well.
