On June 23, 2016, Britain was hit by a political earthquake. Within hours of the EU referendum result, the prime minister had resigned, the pound was falling and Westminster was reeling. So how and why did this political revolution happen—and how does it stand to reshape Britain's politics? The BBC's political editor Laura Kuenssberg tells the inside story of how Britain voted to leave the European Union.Talking to the politicians and the people who ran the campaigns that would reshape Britain's place in the world, she unpacks how the British Prime Minister David Cameron’s referendum plan backfired, what went wrong for the Remain side and how it was outmaneuvered and overtaken by those wanting to leave the EU.
