(EU referendum) Lib Dem leader denounces Cameron
Finance | 24 Jun 2016 4:48 pmTim Farron, the leader of the Liberal Democrats and a staunch backer of Britain remaining in the EU "was utterly gutted and heartbroken'' by the outcome of the referendum. "I accept the result but by golly I don't agree with it,'' he told the BBC today.
Farron blamed the outcome on both Conservative Prime Minister David Cameron, for having "cheaply derided the European Union for a quick headline,'' and Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, for "his abject failure to take this seriously.''
Farron noted that most young people voted to remain. He says "what a tragedy that other voters have chosen to damage their future.'' —AP
