Voters who were told by the socalled elites not to worry about immigration. Britain is a relatively small country. With a population of just 65 million, theyve never been completely comfortable with the eu, but as immigration exploding so did worries about housing, medical care, jobs, and the changing british culture. Last year alone some 630,000 imgram imgrai immigrants arrived. If the trend continues, their population will top 70 million over the next decade with half of it coming from other countries. While the folks who argued to stay with the eu said its better for englands economy, that didnt match up with what some of these folks are experiencing in their daily lives. In moments well here from nile gardener who predicted some of this. He served as special advisor to Margaret Thatcher. And another final poll that predict third down exact result. We begin tonight with Benjamin Hall reporting from london on how all this came to pass. Reporter good evening. Last night britain voted to take control of their borders, their immigration policy, and some say their country. It was the biggest voter turnout. 70 of people turned out. The result, although close, has changed the face of europe forever. At its core with the decision to leave the eu, a body of 28 European Countries with one shared government to which billions of dollars is paid every year. Thats unelected government set many of the laws. The Prime Minister who had pushed to stay in and originally call third down vote was forced to resign after he lost. 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. Reporter for years a politician named nigel led a group of conservatives fighting against the power of the european government. Today he was celebrating victory along with others. Its the victory for ordinary people, decent people. Its a victory against the big merchant banks and the big businesses and against big politics. Reporter one of the major issues was immigration. Millions of people have been flooding into europe with access to benefits, but the european government took control over the immigrant policy. Even the United States president delivered a what was seen as a vailed threat if they left. And u. K. Is going to be in the back of the queue. There was a backlash. People asking what right he had telling people how to vote. Other than that, theres been a downturn in the economy at the moment. People are saying that short term trouble may be a price worth paying for freedom. A lot of people wondering why did the british Prime Minister have to step down . He suffered a defeat, but why did he have to step down . He campaigned strongly for this. He believed britain was better in. Now that they voted to leave, there are negotiations, and he felt he was not in a position having campaigned so strongly on behalf of europe, that he could not longer lead the country forward in the direction it had chosen to vote which was a different direction. This morning he made that decision and resigned. Hes gone as of october. Benjamin, thank you. Some of the folks who wanted to remain with the krun European Union were harsh. They called them racist, stupid, and some other words we cant use on television. Nile gardener is the director of the heritage foundations Margaret Thatcher center for freedom. He was a supporter of the effort to leave the eu. Nile, good to see you. Weve seen this today. If you were in favor of leaving the eu, youre stupid, and charles cook had an interesting piece talking about how his friends said are you sure youre in favor of leaving . All the smart people are in favor of staying. Were seeing that same thing here in our country. Why did you think it was a good idea, and what do you think Margaret Thatcher could have wanted . I think brexit is a Great Development for britain and the u. K. And europe and the United States. This is all about freedom and selfdetermination. British people retaking control of their own country, and after over 40 years as members of the European Union, it was time for britain to declare its own independence. The eu has become a separate National Entity that suffocates sovereignty and freedom, and the british people voted in huge numbers yesterday to basically declare their independence from the eu. Thats a fantastic development. And this is all about retaking control for britain and advancing democracy and economic liberty and freedom, and its also about, i think, the return of Great Britain on the world stage as a true world power. What about lets talk about the money. Theres a tremendous amount of benefit for the United Kingdom. The u. K. Is one of ten Member States who pay more into the eu budget than they get out. Only france and germany contribute more, and so the eu is paying money into the Great Britain is paying this money into the eu budget, and poland and hungary and greece are getting a lot of benefits. Why did the british folks who supported staying think that was okay . Well, i think its sort of beggars belief that people would think that its good for britain to hand over 20 billion pounds a year and get 10 Million Pounds back. The European Union is a large sort of socialist style redistribution system. Its an economic basket case in deep decline. Britain has been subsidizing the European Union for decades. Enough is enough. Margaret thatcher said the european project is perhaps the greatest folly of the modern era. The british people have thrown a lifeboat off the titanic and jumped on board it, and the titanic is heading toward a massive iceberg. Thats where the eu is headed. Its an institution in deep decline. Its run we faceless unaccountable bureaucrats, and theres a deep disallusionment across europe. Brexit will spark a series of referendums across europe, and youre going to see people all over the european continent expressing their disdain for the European Union. What about were already hearing there may be some disdain for england. Already rumblings that other countries may want out. What kind of effect does that have if it happens . They wanted to stay in the eu. Certainly. I think the scotts arent the most pro eu among all the prettyish people, and certainly theres a renewed call for referendum on scottish independence. I think the scotts should bear this in mind. If they do decide to leave the United Kingdom, they would have to, anyway, apply to join the European Union. Theyd also have to apply to join the nato alliance, and spain has already said they would definitely veto any scottish application because of their separatist internal problems. The scotts would be completely on their own. But the vast majority of british people, i think, really want to see change. And this referendum of the European Union was all about change and reasserting sovereignty and selfdetermination. These are universal principles that the American People are cherished so deeply, and i think that brexit is wonderful news for britain. Its wonderful news for america as well. Its going to advance prosperity on both sides of the atlantic based on the economic liberty and political freedom. Great to see you. Thank you. Great to see you. Megan. The success of the leave eu movement is being traced to one of the leading voices. Nigel farosh is a wealthy businessman turned leader of the u. K. s independence party. Now parallels are being drawn between he and donald trump, and the issues the two men put in front of the voters. Watch when we compared remarks from both men this week. Our country lost its way when it stopped putting the American People really first. Dare to dream that the dawn is breaking on an independent, United Kingdom. This will be a victory for real people. A victory for ordinary people. We got here because we switched from a policy of americanism, focusing on whats good for americas middle class, to a policy of globalism. We fought against the nationals and the big merchant banks. Our Foreign Policy has been corrupted. We fought against big politics and lies and corruption and defeat. Let june down in our history as our independence day. [ cheers and applause ] joining me now, someone who knows how messaging influencing voters. A pollster, frank lunts. You were polling this thing. You had it right. You had the levers two points ahead of the remainers. Thats how it turned out. What was it . Why did all the other pollsters underestimate the strength of the leave movement . One, they couldnt predict turnout. The facts that the highest percentage of brits that have ever voted in an election, even more than voted for Prime Minister last year, is significa significant. And the higher the turnout, the better the leave campaign did, and then they were unable to project the 10 or 12 moving at the end. Over 90 of the British Population decided more than two weeks in advance how they were going to vote. The last 10 in the end voted with leave, and the reason why is because the remain campaign did not personalize, individualize, or humanize the election. They talked about britain overall rather than talking about the average, hard working taxpayer. The leave campaign was more effective at personalizing it, and more emotional in its appeal. The wall street journal had a write up talking about certain individual whog decided to leave. A lot of them were working class democrats who made it happen. They were talking about socialized medicine. Theyd go to the hospitals, and one guys wife had to wait ten weeks to get a shot to relieve pain in their backs. These people are not welcoming an influx of 650,000 immigrants. Thats just more people on the roster. More people they have to fight for housing with. Forget jobs. Theyre doing okay on unemployment, but its more than jobs there. Yes, and its also about a government thats lost control. A european government that does not understand that its bureaucracy is destroying the hopes and dreams of the people theyre supposed to serve. The number one complaint other than immigration was this faceless, nameless, european lu bureaucracy that made life more difficult for the british people. What im listening to over there is exactly what im hearing here in america. It is so much of the trump campaign, that the public has had enough. I would say if i were advising the clinton campaign, youd better not represent the status quo. People across europe and america have had it. Theyre fed up with politics as usual, fed up with being ignored by the politicians and fed up with not having a voice and running their own lives. The messaging is very, very similar on both sides, although, i will see the leaveers in Great Britain, they dont have anything like Donald Trumps free trade policy. They want more they dont have shirts like this either. Ill what does that say on the bottom . Vote leave . Vote leave. And im not even allowed to show you this. Im not sure i should tell you this, but they were even giving away condoms that communicated the vote leave campaign. I wont tell you what they said, but well put it on your website so people can take a look after this is over. Ill have to consult my friend, mr. Google. Pull out . James says he has the dirty reference because he has the dirty mind. Thank you for that. Thank you. I thought it was a fuzzy dice. Tonight is different. What do the clinton and trump camps think of this . Well have that next . What does this mean for the Terror Threat in europe and around the world . Well put that question to others. This is worth asking the question, who would be happy if we left . Putin might be happy, i suspect al baghdadi might be happy. With usaa is awesome.

Our reporter in london talked at the top of the hour about the backlash after president obama weighed in with this just two months ago. Our focus is in negotiating with a big block of the European Union to get a trade agreement done. And u. K. Is going to be in the back of the queue. Given the heavy lift on any trade agreement, us having access to a big market with a lot of countries rather than trying to do piecemeal trade agreements is hugely inefficient. They were not persuaded. Today Hillary Clinton suclintohg the u. K. Vote is bad for the u. S. Her statement reading this time of uncertainty only underscores the need for calm, steady, experienced leadership in the white house. For his part, donald trump traveling in scotland today, called the voter rejection of policies of both mrs. Clinton and president obama. Shes constantly dictating to the world what to do. The world doesnt listen to them. You can see that by the vote, but hes constantly tick kadicio other countries. And i think his recommendation, perhaps, caused it to fail. What do you think this says about how Hillary Clinton maybe misread the world . Shes misread everything. She misred this. I was surprised she was so bold joining us now, an attorney and donald trump supporter, and a national indicated radio talk show host. Good to see you both. Richard, many people today came out and said this bodes very well for donald trump. It doesnt bode well for Hillary Clinton. That trump and his supporters are more aligned with the sentiment behind the leave movement which prevailed. Does it cause you any concern as a hillary supporter . For sure. I think this is a ripple effect. And i think the lord speaks to us in signs. Its time for democrats to stop thinking that donald trump is not this crazy he is a crazy outsider, and his policies are horrib horrible. But he has an opportunity here to win this thing if we dont get out there and get active. If youre seeing from the party is not that. They rejected a living wage amendment which is the opposite of what we should be doing. We should be talking to poor, middle class whites. Poor middle class African Americans, poor middle class hispanics and saying get in the process. Donald trumps policies are horrible for you, and this election matters. I think thats what we have to do immediately. And this should be a warning sign that rome is burning and its time for democrats to get up and active, or donald trump will be the president. Scary. So thats a message were hearing. Its not just richard who says donald trump is crazy. I think he calls hillary crazy i dont remember his nickname. Krumt or whatever. She came out tonight with a statement that said pay attention, suggesting donald trump can win, and youre hearing this more and more from the left cetoday saying they ne to take this as a warning to get behind her, and to open up their pocketbooks to help her. The brexit vote was a wholesale rejection of the clinton, cameron, obama globalist agenda. People are mad as hell, and theyre not going to take it anymore. How many people need to flood into the country and how many terrorist attacks like san bernardino, paris, orlando, need to take place before people say enough . This mirrors mr. Trumps policy on immigration . He wants a system of vetting and screening that is comprehensive, accurate, and will stop people from hot beds of islamic terrorism who are predisposed to this type of behavior from coming to america. The britons have it right. The difference between u. K. And here, you tell me, richard. Over there the polling was tight. They thought england would stay in the eu. Here Hillary Clinton has been beating donald trump steadily in virtually all of the polls. So if the pollsters have it wrong now, theyre way wrong. I mean, theyre all wrong. Granted, there are still four months until the election, but does make you feel better after you get over your concern . I mean, a little better. Heres the thing. Its too early to look at nationwide polls. Look at state by state. Look at a state like ohio where donald trump even in his baddest week is tied with Hillary Clinton. The reason why, pollsters arent talking to the right people, and you have to make sure the campaign is mobilizing the right people. You have to mobilize young people to vote. The misstake in london. You have to make sure that young people are Still Holding onto bernie. Exactly. Theyre holding onto bernie because of their ideals. Bernie is saying hes going to vote for hillary, and the young people are like no. He is. His f
