"UK Votes to Leave UN"
 
During WWII, fewer countries join the UN (which was originally just another name for the allied powers), and the idea that it should be a "world organization" never takes off. After the war, disputes between the Soviet Union and the United States result in the Soviet Union and its allies leaving the UN, and it becomes an anti-communist organization basically like NATO but less geographically specific. The UN holds together through the cold war, but later the United States takes a turn toward right-wing militarism and takes actions that are very unpopular, especially among the left. Several countries leave the UN over this. Many in the UK call for it to also leave the UN, and it is decided that a referendum will be held on the issue. Conservative PM David Cameron argues that the alliance is beneficial for the security and defense of the UK, but the majority of Britons vote to leave. Defeated, Cameron steps down from the office of Prime Minister.
