I disagree with you
Now would be an interesting time for the Queen to abdicate and let Prince William step. up.
The R & A have excluded Turnberry from The Open rotation for as long as he owns it.
They probably assumed he knew like everybody else following this did.

Democracy is meaningless without independence. Middle-schoolers may get to vote for class president — and may care deeply about the outcome — but ultimately, those votes don't have much of an effect on school policy. Similarly, when a country isn't independent, the real power lies beyond the ability of the voters to reach. They can vote and vote — but they can't force a significant change in policy.
This was the problem that voters in Britain faced yesterday. They still had a parliament, and elections, just as they had done for centuries. But more and more, real decision-making power was leaving Britain, and going to unelected bureaucrats in Brussels — bureaucrats who were often indifferent, or even hostile, to the desires of the British people.
The results were what you would expect: policies that benefited a tiny elite class (mostly in London), but left working class people behind. Years and years of complaints from British voters went unheeded. Even yesterday, the elites in Europe were planning to move forward with their plans to take even more power from the British people. But today, the British people have taken their power back.
We Americans will soon face a similar choice. For years now, Americans have been trying to change policy at the ballot box. But the policies don't change very much, because so much power is beyond the reach of the voters. The Fed sets monetary policy without concern for what we think. The Supreme Court makes social policy without concern for what we think. The WTO makes trade policy without concern for what we think. And, for most Americans, the result has been a disaster. As in Britain, we have a country where a few people are getting all the benefits, and most of us are stuck with the burden.
That's why Republican voters nominated Donald Trump. He was the only candidate who understood the importance of restoring American independence. And most Republicans understand that independence is essential to having real pro-American policies. Britain has chosen freedom and independence. In November, Americans have the opportunity to make the same choice.
Total horseshit.

If you want to understand Brexit and what's coming, read this:

I was going to ask which part and then I realized it was all of it. It did contain my favorite criticism of Obama by the right: he's ineffectual yet somehow ruining everything. Pick one.
