To be expected and deserved that he resigned.
What a political error. As PM he almost lost Scotland and now will go down as the man who unexpectedly took UK out of EU.
The face of the Etonian elite who have lead the country to uncertainty and possible chaos.
UK Votes to leave EU
My winnings from Richard is now worth ten percent less suddenly.

EU referendum results live: Brexit most likely outcome says leading pollster
from the Telegraph live feed.
Results seem to be showing narrower wins for Stay or larger or unexpected wins for Leave.
Working class/Labour areas so far, more for Brexit.
Looks increasingly depressing.

Euro 2016
England denied by Russia’s last-gasp equaliser in Euro 2016 opener | Football | The Guardian
England looked to have won through Eric Dier’s goal when Vasili Berezutski equalised in injury time to earn a draw for Russia in Marseille
The action has started. Friday night was the opener in Paris with France playing Romania.
We have been accessing the action through alternative routes. Primer TV is showing some in NZ. Sky has the rights but is showing it on a specific channel so not through our Fanpass subscription- as Sky Sports internet access.
So we have used VPN to access ITV sport and will do the same to watch on the BBC.
So far so good and an example of technology overcoming the rights lock-down that is hard to maintain in the modern world.
And as far as the football was concerned-England looked good, capable but lacked control. Should have had the game in the bag before the last minute equaliser.
Voted
Euro referendum
My opportunity to vote.
The ripples from the EU referendum grow
Tory MPs escalate party turmoil with open call for Cameron to quit
Andrew Bridgen says Conservatives so fractured over EU that fresh election needed, while Nadine Dorries says prime minister ‘has lied profoundly’
David Cameron’s hopes of being able to avoid terminal damage to Conservative party unity after the EU referendum campaign were dented on Sunday when two rebel MPs openly called for a new leader and a general election before Christmas.
The attacks came from Andrew Bridgen and Nadine Dorries – both Brexiters, and longstanding, publicity-hungry opponents of the prime minister – and their claim that even winning the EU referendum won’t stop Cameron facing a leadership challenge in the summer was dismissed by fellow Tories.
