Like a lot of people, I went to bed last night thinking that Remain would win, and win by a comfortable margin. At 4am, for some reason, I woke up, and decided that it was not worth checking my phone for news – but then changed my mind. After that there was no getting back to sleep.
This magazine has published articles from Brexiteers and from Remainers, both of whom made eloquent cases for their positions. This balanced approach was the entirely right thing to do, as, let us remember, there were good arguments on all sides. There have been a few overheated expressions of opinion, especially in the hothouse that is social media, but many, like this magazine, have striven to keep it civilised. And that is a good thing.
