Jim Talent writes: For almost five hundred years, Great Britain has exercised an influence on global events disproportionate to its size. It did so again last Thursday. The decision to Leave was what Churchill might have called a “decisive intervention” in the course of events, and not just in the United Kingdom. Once again, the British lion has in defiance roared. The path ahead contains many uncertainties, to be sure, but it’s not like the European Union, even before the referendum, was an ocean of stability either; and the British now can at least be confident that they have regained control over the path their country will take. – National Review Online

It has opened up possibilities for renewal. – National Review Online
