Elections often give a snapshot of a divided country, but in the end, whatever party manages to scrape together the seats gets to implement a programme.

That just can’t be said of the referendum. Politicians must implement the will of the people, but what does that mean? Which people and what programme?

There are clear outcomes the Government must target: cut immigration, reinstate the sovereignty of British courts and keep trade barriers as low as possible. But which should it prioritise? What is the Government’s mandate and how should it go about implementing it?

The only way to decide how we move forwards is with the tried and tested method of the institution at the heart of the Brexit campaign: our parliamentary democracy. We must have a General Election; we must see our leaders come forwards with their best effort at a thoughtful plan for the future; we must see new leaders emerge.
