The irony for David Cameron is that the EU referendum that ultimately destroyed his political career does appear to be resulting in the two key things he had hoped to achieve: uniting a Conservative party that had been racked with division over Europe for years and shooting the Ukip fox.
Here is another Irony that the Guardian avoids when talking about Labour too.
The great fear of Indyref in Scotland was that Labour would lose all it's seats and the Tories would wind up forever in Government in England.
In the end the hatred of Labour, in Scotland, over their lies in Indyref have achieved that result themselves. Sturgeon has done the rest so that this general election may see the Tories return more seats in Scotland than there have been since Thatcher/Major and whilst Labour will see seats return it is likely to be no more than a handful.
Setting the scene for a Tory dominated government for the next 10 years or so. Since Thatcher, the biggest issue with the Tory party has been Britain IN Europe. That will be gone by 2019. With that gone, the party will be able to unite around it's core principles and, possibly, move a little to the left as well. Probably negating much of the effect of the Blair years.
Unless Labour finds a credible leader, it's going to be in the wilderness for a very long time.
