Britons turned out in record numbers to cast an historic vote that has them taking back control of their homeland and returning the United Kingdom to a self-governing state leaving the current government in a state of shock.

Prime Minster David Cameron has tender his resignation. World financial markets are reeling in the aftermath. The British Pound nosedived with a stunning devaluation. The far reaching effects of the vote are being calculated throughout Europe and the remaining members of the European Union.

The Brexit polling over the past months has always remained within a 3% margin. The voters remained faithful to their original sentiments with little movement or change in positions even after the massive global campaigns for both sides.

The Brexit effects from financial to immigration are suffering the wake of the historic vote.
