Britain leaves the EU, PM Cameron resigns, world markets crash

In a historic moment for the United Kingdom and the world, Britain has voted to leave the European Union. The resulting impact of the vote includes the resignation of Prime Minister David Cameron and markets crashing worldwide. The final tally of votes ended with 52 percent voting to leave and 48 percent voting to remain. The UK pound dropped to its lowest level in 31 years, as European markets took a hit. Stocks in the U.S. tumbled as well, with the Dow opening 500 points down this morning. Prime Minister Cameron addressed the nation outside 10 Downing Street, saying the people have spoken and that there will be a new prime minister before October. Former London mayor Boris Johnson has been noted as a favorite to take over as Prime Minister once Cameron leaves. The Cabinet is to meet on Monday to discuss steps on how to move forward.  2nd passport
