“Divided Kingdom” votes to leave European Union
June 24, 2016 | By Sikh Siyasat Bureau
London: The Britain has voted to leave the European Union (EU), the 28 countries union, to take greater control of its economy and its borders. This has shattered the stability of the continental unity forged after World War II. The EU now shrinks to 27 countries bloc.
Official results released early Friday show the ‘Leave’ side prevailed 52 per cent to 48 per cent (Remain) in Thursday’s vote, which had a turnout of 72 per cent.
The U.K. is the first major country to decide to leave the bloc, which evolved from the ashes of the war as the region’s leaders sought to build links and avert future hostility.
Financial authorities around the world have warned that a British exit will reverberate through a delicate global economy.
