Government in disarray, economic and Political Uncertainty in europe looks set at least for now to continue. Lets get some analysis of the situtuation. This has created a whole constitutional mess. How long do you think will take to sort it all out west and mark you are actually correct. The result of the referendum is unraveling both at the eu level but also within the u. K. The situation in london is such that David Cameron has said that article 50, which deals with the u. K. Exit, will not be triggered until his successor has been found. That is unlikely to take place until the autumn. Even then there is no specified timetable with regard to when article 50 needs to be triggered. The European Parliament can sign that declaration calling on the u. K. To trigger it but in actual fact it remains the prerogative of london to actually do that. Given the Current Situation in british politics. As well as the backtracking that is taking place. Did David Cameron have a duty paul he absolutely got them into this mess. He does have a duty to stay on but on a personal level he feels completely defeated. Regards the energy that in theerendum required amount of Political Energy that he put into that you need to understand howo much political effort is going to be required to renegotiate the uks relationship with the eu. At this moment in time he feels a defeated individual. He believes he is given everything he possibly can and that probably outweighs the duty that he had. Thank you.
