David Cameron has resigned as Prime Minister after Britain voted to leave the European Union.

It followed a turbulent night with Remain campaigners quietly confident until the early hours when results from Newcastle and Sunderland showed better than expected returns for the Brexit camp.

A surprise victory for a Brexit in Swansea, which was expected to vote to Remain, did little to dampen concerns despite Scotland overwhelmingly backing staying in the Union.

Other votes in Wales began to show a trend towards a surprise Leave vote, particularly in deprived communities.

Big wins for David Cameron's campaign in London and Oxford did little to allay fears that early predictions had been wrong, as the pound began to tank - down by 6% by around 1pm.

Leave passed the finishing post just after 6am, as it became clear that nothing could swing the vote back in favour of the Remain campaign.
With the Leave campaign securing 52 per cent of the vote, Mr Cameron addressed the nation in an emotional speech outside 10 Downing Street to announce that he would be stepping down.

Statements are expected to be made by Sinn Fein and the SNP later today calling for a breakaway from the Union. London backed Remain but the turnout was lower than expected because of bad weather.
Meanwhile on the market, the FTSE 250 index has plunged a whopping 11.7pc. The index of so-called mid-cap companies had dropped an astonishing 2,017 points to 15,309 in the first few minutes of trading.

1997 US Air Forces report on Roswell:

On this day in 1997, U.S. Air Force officials release a 231-page report dismissing long-standing claims of an alien spacecraft crash in Roswell, New Mexico, almost exactly 50 years earlier.

Public interest in Unidentified Flying Objects, or UFOs, began to flourish in the 1940s, when developments in space travel and the dawn of the atomic age caused many Americans to turn their attention to the skies. The town of Roswell, located near the Pecos River in southeastern New Mexico, became a magnet for UFO believers due to the strange events of early July 1947, when ranch foreman W.W. Brazel found a strange, shiny material scattered over some of his land. He turned the material over to the sheriff, who passed it on to authorities at the nearby Air Force base. On July 8, Air Force officials announced they had recovered the wreckage of a “flying disk.” A local newspaper put the story on its front page, launching Roswell into the spotlight of the public’s UFO fascination.


UK Developer Rebellion describes move as unwelcome.

Rebellion, the Oxford, England-based studio behind the Sniper Elite series and owner of the 2000 AD property, has said it believes the industry will remain strong. "The UK video games development sector is an export focused industry that sells content all over the globe," said chief executive Jason Kingsley. "We have a highly skilled workforce, a creative and growing studio population, and a heritage of 30 years of success.

"While uncertainty is unwelcome for business, the UK video games industry will remain strong, resilient, and competitive."

TIGA, a non-profit trade association that represents the UK game's industry, has called for the government to commit to keeping the video game industry remains healthy by ensuring it has "access to finance, a favourable tax environment," and can "access highly skilled people from outside of the UK."

"The UK video games industry is a high technology sector that provides high skilled employment for over 30,000 people, including approximately 11,000 development staff and which contributes £1.1 billion to UK GDP," said TIGA chief executive Richard Wilson.


It's time for the gaming industry to stop catering to straight white males, Feminist Frequency's managing editor Carolyn Petit said during a keynote at this year's Games for Change festival. Petit's talk was introduced as a state of the union address, and the former GameSpot editor and longtime gamer used her half hour to discuss the parts of the industry she thinks most need improvement, including becoming more inclusive.

"What is it about the games industry that has led some people to feel so strongly that it belongs to them at the exclusion of others?" Petit said, drawing on her past experience as a transwoman working at a prominent gaming news website to help form her answer.

Many of the most popular games, like military shooters and action franchises, star white male protagonists, and that has become status quo, she explained. These games are both the most popular and the most visible, to the point where they dominate coverage, and Petit said this comes at the possible expense of more inclusive, smaller titles.

The editor of this daily sincerely believes that her claims are rather unsupported as it is the developers who make good games through good gameplay, instead of gamers flocking to buy a game just because it has a white male on the cover. The editor would like to share the thought that this particular lady is rather ill-informed about the video game industry.


Say goodbye to one-tile cities. The newest Civilization game is totally overhauling the city system from previous games, transforming cities into sprawling horizontal territories that take up multiple hexes on the map. It’s a totally new approach that should drastically change how Civ is played.

The developers at Firaxis are calling this new mechanic the “district” system. In older games, you’d open up a city’s production screen and build everything within a single space, but now you’ll have to expand your city by constructing districts on neighboring tiles. These districts come in various flavors—market districts, religious districts, theater districts, and so on—and they’re the bricks of how you’ll specialize your nation in Civilization VI.

Your production buildings will also appear in those districts—libraries and universities, for example, will pop up in the scientific “campus” district. If an enemy army were to come by and raze that campus to the ground, you’d lose those buildings.

Here is a Sean Bean narrated look at Civ 6 (He dies at the end)
