Caroline Voaden: Brexit is the result of an ideological divide in an old political party

We have seen democratically elected politicians work together with each other, across parties across groups, across national divides. It is truly inspirational. Brexit is the result of an ideological divide in an old political party that should have split decades ago. But it will not, because of a voting system that is not fit for purpose. And the only silver lining in this very dark cloud is that the division caused by Brexit could now be the catalyst for something even bigger: a wholesale reform of all democracy in the UK which will mean that our country can never again be hijacked by a vanity project that has no basis in reality.
