The BBC (and ITV) are projecting that the UK will vote to leave the European Union.

 

Very frightening stuff. However dangerous our situation across the pond may be sometimes, Trump can and will very likely be handled. This seems catastrophic for Britain.

Beyond the ramifications for the everyday person, it will also cause a lot of upheaval in their two major parties.  It's actually frightening to think that Boris Johnson might be PM, especially after his open, blatant racism toward Obama just a few months ago. 

 

The Democrats need to look to Labour for examples of what happens when you alienate so much of your base in so many different ways, all while simultaneously seeming too weak and craven to attract new voters.
