Ex-PM David Cameron 'sorry' for creating Brexit divisionsThe British prime minister who called the 2016 Brexit referendum and then saw the public vote to leave the European Union, creating the nation's prolonged political crisis, says he is sorry for the divisions it has caused. Is it too late now to say sorry It was actually him, William Hague and George Osborne who decided to have the referendum - in a room on their own. Unbelievable isn't it. Our Houses of Parliament over here are taking themselves down a sink hole. At least he did not veto everything the previous administration had done just because of hate.
