A 16-year-old audience member on the BBC's Question Time has been hailed for her brutal, eloquent verdict on the Brexit chaos.
The young woman managed to sum up the UK's problem more sharply than most MPs, journalists and observers put together.
Speaking on the flagship debate show in Belfast, she said: “David Cameron made the referendum policy because he didn’t want to risk losing 10 or 15 seats to Ukip.
“And look where it has got us.
“This has always been because Tories are playing party politics with issues that are going to be huge generational changes for all of us.

“I am 16 years old. I didn’t get a say in Brexit and I won't get a say in it, because there is not going to be a second referendum on it as it stands.
"Either way what we have to face is this is not an issue of parties coming together, this is not an issue of direct democracy.
“This all comes back to a party putting itself before the country it’s trying to govern.”
She recommended a further extension and a general election to seek the representative democracy "this country was built on".
Her comments were widely welcomed on Twitter - where users said she was remarkably eloquent and called for her to be made PM.

Another Twitter user, James, wrote: "I showed the clip to my nan and she started to cry and said 'This young lady is so spot on, I just wish the rest of my generation and the one after me would listen to the young more. They are our future'."
