On 23 June, in a historic referendum, the UK voted for Brexit - that is, to leave the European Union. The vote has triggered an extraordinary chain of events, including the resignation of the Prime Minister. There will now be a national debate about the consequences for Britain’s place in the world, its relationship with the EU, its approach to immigration and trade, and much more. We are in uncharted territory.
