The eu is failing. The eu is dying. I hope we have knocked the first bring out of the wall. I hope this is the First Step Towards a europe of sovereign nation states trading together, neighbors together, friends together, but without frags, anthems or useless old unelected president s. On the record has Live Team Coverage u. K. To the new york stock exchange, we begin with Fox News Foreign Affairs correspondent Benjamin Hall in london. Hi there, greta. Britain woke up a new, independent britain. Also an uncertain britain. This is over 40 years since they vote to do join the eu. And suddenly overnight they voted to leave. What lies ahead is uncharted territory. Global markets crashed as a result and saw biggest one day slide since 2011. Almost 2 trillion lost in value with the dow dropping 400 points in the first minute of trading alone. Yet, the u. K. s biggest challenge still lies ahead that dealing with this messy divorce from europe. To do that they must first trigger article 50. That formally notified their intention to withdraw from the eu and sets a 2year clock running. Vast negotiating teams will be formed to go over every detail of the separation. Early successes for the leave camp in the north of england first signs last night that the government was really in trouble. As the night went on, it became clear that the outcome was going to surprise everyone. The final decision was called just after 7 00 a. M. This morning. And not long after that David Cameron, who had steaked his leadership on the outcome resigned. The countrys new direction is now away from europe. The leave camp promised the electorate that it would take back control of immigration policies, trade deals and sovereignty. Now it just has to figure out how. Nobody really knows what comes next. This is uncharted territory. But the negative great lakes are going to be long and complicated. Europe doesnt want to show other countries in the group that its okay to leave and terrified that other countries might do so. They also need to trade with the u. K. We are going to see a very messy dance going on over the they try to figure this out. Even here in england 48 of people did not want to leave. Very divided here. Very divided in europe. And that is being felt around the world tonight. So, big moment here for the europeans. Benjamin, thank you. And a market freakout today. The u. S. Markets going off the cliff on the news of the brexit vote. And your wallet probably took a beating. Fox Business Network anchor liz liz claman is at the new york stock exchange. Liz . It was outright stunner. I got a new number for you. They just taled it, the amount of losses on paper only. If you didnt sell anything today you are okay. The losses on paper are now tallying 900 billion on the u. S. Stock market. Just horrifically ugly day it of course started overnight when the leave camp appeared and said we won and they did so the politicians got it wrong. The trashedz got it wrong. Everybody got it wrong and the markets really got it wrong. So as our markets start to do falcon teenage john radiated nearly every sector. The u. S. Dollar, greta, actually spiked because this was the one safe haven along with things like gold and u. S. Treasuries. The u. S. Dollar spiked the most since 1978 in the your your youre revolution. Brexit in the mirror. You start to do see countries come up with their own names because some do feel that they want to rid themselves of the bureaucracy that is the euro land. What did you see . You saw things like frexit for france. Check out for the czech republican. It leave for italy. Austria to portugal. Number one thing to point out here is that the stay camp failed to understand how people felt in england outside of london. It would sort of be like if we had the same type of vote here and only listened what was going on in new york and washington, d. C. How do the rest of england feel . Well now we know, it is really very much this euro sen centricity. It is felt on our u. S. Stock markets. Our future which give us an indication how the markets might open on monday fell even further than where we closed today. What does that tell you . Still a lot of fear with peoples money. Sit tight. Liz, thank you. Well, a whopping impact from the historic brexit vote is rippling across the globe. Long and uncertain road ahead. Ambassador john bolton goes on the record from the u. K. Good evening, sir. Glad to be with you. All right. You are there. Is the vote because they are sick of the red tape and they want to free themselves of the eu or is it much like here in the United States with sort of the sanders and trump sanders and trump campaigns where there is a lot of resentment . Well, i think its about selfgovernment. And i know the tendency is to put everything into the focus of whats happening today in the United States, but this debate has been going on in britain for 43 years. There was great reluctance to get into the European Union. It has never abated. And the debate intensified 25 years ago with the treaty and the decision not to go into the euro. So, this fight has taken a long time to play out. And it reflects deeply held views in the United Kingdom that actually they like governing themselves. How is that for a radical thought . But what provoked it though . Its been going on 25 years. Why now . David cameron made a huge mistake. He made a huge mistake in the 2015 election by promising a referendum and by saying he would renegotiate a fundamental change in the relationship between the United Kingdom and the eu. He failed to get that in the negotiations and i think that convinced many brits there is no effective way to reform the European Union. Were out. Hymn say one thing about how close the vote was, 52 to 48. Of the 48 who vote to do remain. Thats not a proeu vote. Thats a vote against the uncertainty. Even the remaining people called their position, remain and reform. Reform was not going to happen in the European Union. It takes exactly this kind of Shock Therapy which the brits have administered. All right. So whats the brits role in the world going to be now. What kind of adjustment . What are we going to see now . I realize its going to take a while to unravel from the eu but whats the difference going to be . Im not so sure its going to take that long. I think its to britains advantage and eu to do this more quickly. We will see. Britain can now rid itself of the sclerotic overregulation of the brussels bureaucrats. Reduce taxes and regulations. Be a much more attractive place for foreign investment. All this doom and gloom that you hear from financial geniuses who simply misunderstood what the british people thought. They made these same arguments 20 plus years ago when britain was considering joining the june. How can london survive as a financial capitol if it doesnt join the euro and they didnt and its still a financial capital. Ohio could so many british politicians completely misread their people to think this couldnt happen . Theology. Inside the European Union it is inconceivable that anybody would not want to be part of the European Union. Thats what you hear from the continental european leaders today. I will tell you one of the real significant impacts of the british vote will not only be in britain, it will ripple across europe. Theyre already talking about research da referda. People are dissatisfied with their politicians who have been pursuing this project and disregarding the people. This, to me, is the most fundamental point. The European Union has never been primarily about business and economics. It has, from its inception, in the treaty of rome in 1957, been a political project to form a united europe as an alternative poll to the United States. And that project is now on the road to failure. Ambassador, thank you very much, sir. Thank you. Okay. Guess where donald trump is. The u. K. In scotland at his golf course. He took a moment to congratulate the british people for retaking control of their country. I really do see a parallel between whats happening in the United States and whats happening here. People want to see borders. They dont necessarily want people pouring into their country that they dont know who they are and where they come from. They have no idea. And i think, you know, not only win but much bigger margin than people thought could happen. Nobody really knows, you will know in five years. You will be able to analyze it and maybe it will take longer than that what is known is that they have taken back their independence. Thats a very, very important thing. Theyre standing in the world. They are standing in europe will certainly be diminished. Influence will be diminished. Will they be the first call for you for the u. S. I dont know first call or second call. They will be a very powerful call. Its going to be a great relationship. They will be great allies. They always have been. I think zero will change on that score. There has never been a better ally. I think nothing will change on that score. You are taking your country back. Youre going to let people that you want into your country and people that you dont want or people that you dont think are going to be appropriate for your country or good for your country, you are not going to have to take. You know, look, europe like the United States has made tremendous mistakes over the last period of time. You look at germany and some of the things that are happening, there have been tremendous mistakes that have been made. So i think its going to end up being a very good thing but it will take time. What do you think it says how Hillary Clinton has maybe misread the world and since she a former secretary of state, what does that say about her. She has always misread everything. She has misread this. I was surprised she was so bold. The only reason she did it is because obama wanted it. If obama wanted it the other way, if he said leave, she would have said leave. She does whatever he wants her to do. Now, you know, but thats okay. We dont have to get into that. But, i was actually very surprised that president obama would have come over here and he would have been so bold as to tell the people over here what to do. In the United States, the people want their country back. In the United States, people want smart decisions, not dumb decisions. And we have been given dumb decisions for many years and the people are tired of it. And i have a feeling the same thing has happened over here ands that why you had the result that you had. Now, this message of frustration with the establishment parallels both senator Bernie Sanders and Donald Trumps race for the white house. Former speaker of the house Newt Gingrich goes on the record. Good evening, sir. And one of the things you tweeted today about this whole brexit and about donald trump was this. Solid, positive statement by real donald trump, thats his handle on twitter on reaffirming u. S. British ties after the vote. Churchill and thatcher would be proud. What did you mean . Well, historically we have been very, very close to Great Britain. Less close under obama. His intervention was totally inappropriate. And he sort of threatened the british people. It back fired on him. I think what trump is saying is that first of all, he respects the britishs peoples right to choose. I think he would have been porch whichever way they went. But, in addition, he wanted to reassure them that the unique relationship we have had with Great Britain for a very long time will continue in a trump administration. I think thats something that churchill who worked very hard to foster the relationship and thatcher who was extraordinarily close to ronald reagan, they would both have appreciated an american making that kind of statement. Would they not expect to hear that from other candidates . Would they hear that from secretary clinton . Are you suggesting they would not . I think secretary clinton is so totally favor of bureaucrats that she would automatically be in favor of brussels over london. She is so in favor of large, complex, multinational operations that she would favor the European Union over Great Britain. Just as she favors large, multinational operations over the United States. The fact is you have clear choice here. Do we move towards reform and towards taking back control of our country or do we continue to allow lawyers and diplomats and bureaucrats to set the path for us . And i think its going to play out here as it has in europe. We just saw by the way two women elected as mayors of rome in a Remarkable National uprising in which a comedian established a brand new anticorruption party. They beat all the regular establishment parties, so the indicates are not just brexit, you are seeing again and again around the world. People are sick of their elites they are sick of the corruption and being sick of being told they have to obey some weird set of ideologies they dont believe in. Let me bring the viewers in for a second. I like to bring them in to vote. Now is your chance to vote or twitter is brexit good for trump tweet yes or no to greta. We will show the results throughout the show. You said people are sick and tired of the elites in london dictating them. Populist insurgency very similar to the u. S. Tell me. Well, i think its obvious. You had the entire british establishment was opposed to leaving. From the Prime Minister on down. The financial leadership, the intellectual leadership. All of them said dont leave, dont leave, dont leave, and the average voters ran over them. You had the same thing happen in rome and in turen this week. You almost had it in austria. The insurgent barely lost. The traditional parties literally were not in the runoff because people are so sick of them. I think this is a very strong signal that the election this fall could literally be the American People versus the washington bureaucrats. And i think that bodes very, very badly for Hillary Clinton. Is it because in your view both in britain and United States is that theAmerican People and abercrombie and fitch people are fed one what the politicians are telling them. Fed up with the recession. Fed up with the falling apart and tax system. Is this another way to say enough and we want to move on and we are sick and tired of the socalled politician elites telling us whats good for us . Sean spicer has this great chart that just has the word enough. And the h at the end of it is hillarys h but with a downward arrow. Enough of being told that orlando was not about terrorism. Enough of being told that we have to pretend terrible schools have to be protected because the Teachers Union wants them. Enough of being told that we have to allow in thousands and thousands of additional Syrian Refugees about whom we know nothing and cannot possibly vet. Go down the list of all the things we are told. Look at the washington metro after billions of dollars. Its a disaster. How many things have to fail for the average american to finally decide the bureaucracy and the establishment cant deliver. Lets try something new. Dont get me started on the d. C. Metro system. Anyway, mr. Speaker, thank you, sir. Good to be with you. Well, the eu shakeup is rattling international relations. With the london out of the eu. Somehow germany responding . Fox Business Network correspondent adam shapiro is live in berlin. Adam . Yes, greta. Angela merkel, the chancellor here in germany actually held a press conference at about 12 30 this afternoon and issued a statement where she said only together will the eu be able to assert its interests in the world. She then told everybody to remain calm because you had different eu leaders lashing out against the u. K. And the decision to leave the eu. But those leaders, a few of them are coming here to berlin on monday. For instance, the president of france hollande, he will be here. The Prime Minister of italy will be here. They will be discussing how they go forward. And thats before the big meeting on tuesday in brussels. You also have dissension within the eu and they are afraid they wont be able to contain it. You have the politician in holland, mr.
