And good morning, we begin with that breaking news, the stunning announcement from british Prime Minister David Cameron that hes stepping down. This after britain voted to withdraw from the European Union going against cameron who campaigned vigorously to stay in the eu. The british people have made a very clear decision to take a different path and as such, i think the country requires fresh leadership to take it in this direction. I will do everything i can as Prime Minister to steady the ship over the coming weeks and months but i do not think it would be right for me to try to be the captain that steers our country to its next destination. And cameron wasnt the only one surprised. While polls did say the vote was too close to calm still thought the referendum would be defeated. You can see that reflected in the markets. Abcs lama hasan has reaction from london. When we spoke earlier you said the results were shocking. Now with cameron resigning, what are we thinking . Oh, absolutel

Prime minister David Cameron is stepping down amid the historic vote to leave the European Union. Cameron said the british people need new leadership. I will do everything i can as Prime Minister to steady the ship over the coming weeks and months, but i do not think it would be right for me to try to be the captain that steers our country to its next destination. This is not a decision ive taken lightly, but i do believe its in the National Interest to have a period of stability, and then the new leadership required.

Before we would lead, we would stand on the railing about car, both of us waving to the crowd. It was as far as the eye could see. We were told there were 50,000 people that came out to the county care around county fairgrounds. [applause] they know a better deal is coming. Know that they are part of a movement. Donald says that to me more often than anything else. When we see the crowds, he will say, this is a movement, mike. It is bigger than us. He says it with the kind of humility that we so admire leaders. In leaders. I admire him as my running mate. Americas choice has never been clearer. The most straight talking candidate since Ronald Reagan is running against one of the most dishonest candidates ever. [applause] let me say, as i stand in this hallowed place, the American People picked a bold truth teller in 1980 and i know theyre going to elect a bold truth teller in 2016. [applause] these challenging times, let me reflect on the policies and then i will close. Challenging tim
