Furthermore I think he now actually realises, he is likely to be the one who actually does take us out of the EU and him be the one triggering Article 50.
Something he hoped Cameron would be doing and also that Cameron would have started the difficult negotiations before going too.
If this man is elected PM, no one will ever have a clue what he really intends to do or whether they can believe a word he says.
He,just in my opinion, used this EU referendum for his own ambitions, not to really leave the EU at all since all he said in this campaign has gone against all he has said for years and even up to the weeks before the campaign began.
Now he may have the hard task, and also the blame probably for what goes wrong in the future,with David Cameron now going right off almost and leaving him or another successor with it all to deal with..
Johnson brought this PM down by his actions in this referendum and he should never be rewarded for that at all,again just my view.

I agree with most of what you are saying. While I am not a Boris fan, I want those that put us in this position to be held responsible for their actions, and the only way to do that is for them to have key roles in the next leadership. In that respect, I believe that is why Cameron chose to resign. Why should he clear up a mess that others have caused. I wouldn't in his position, not when he had advised against it so strongly.
I want parties that are more reflective of the people. We are not there yet, it may take another 4 years, but the time is approaching.
