A Few Thoughts on Brexit: New at Reason

Marian Tupy has a few thoughts on Brexit:

First, I have not been a supporter of David Cameron’s “one nation conservatism,” which eschews fundamental economic reform and embraces the “nanny state,” but I applaud the Prime Minister for fulfilling his election pledge and giving the electorate the referendum that the people of Britain wanted for a very long time. Unlike a frightening number of commentators and politicians on both sides of the Atlantic who now castigate Cameron for being “irresponsible” (i.e., for making the mistake of consulting the British people), I commend him for behaving honorably. Equally honorable was his resignation. It would be nice if more Western leaders had the decency of resigning when the policies they passionately support are rejected by the electorate!
