At first glance this seems like good news, but it must be tempered by the realities:
1. He is only going because it is ‘job done’ from his point of view. He has delivered an irreversible shock to the economy. The aftermath of which will be erosion of workers rights and the sell off of large parts of the public sector. He will be counting the billions in kickbacks and retainers from the people who really back him.
2. He is doing it to be out of the public eye when it all goes tits up early next year. He will continue to manipulate and influence from behind the scenes.
3. It is of his own volition. I’d much rather have seen him being chased down Whitehall in his socks by a pitchfork wielding mob. But he’s too cunning to be publicly visible when people’s lives are trashed by Brexit.
To be honest, I’d like to see him in court charged with treason. Money given to Leave was from dubious foreign sources. In effect he has acted against the interests of his own country and been partly paid by malicious state actors to do so. If they’re looking for a judge or jury member I’d like to put my name forward now.
