:00:07. > :00:17.Remember this day! This day is British Independence Day!

:00:18. > :00:19.Brexit campaigners celebrate as Wales votes to leave

:00:20. > :00:24.the European Union, describing it as an historic moment.

:00:25. > :00:32.A fantastic result. It wasn't just England bowling the rest of Britain

:00:33. > :00:36.outside of the EU, it was England and Wales. We have to protect our

:00:37. > :00:41.jobs. We are doing everything we can to maintain our economy and

:00:42. > :00:42.stability is our number one task. Blaenau Gwent voters showed

:00:43. > :00:44.the most support to leave, despite being an area that's

:00:45. > :00:57.received significant EU funding. It's the principle, we shouldn't be

:00:58. > :00:59.involved in the EU. I think there are too many immigrants coming into

:01:00. > :01:00.our country and taking our jobs. We'll look what it could mean

:01:01. > :01:04.for our economy, our Government, and the effect it could

:01:05. > :01:07.have on all our lives. Wales' footballers aiming to keep

:01:08. > :01:13.progressing at Euro 2016. Chris Coleman's side

:01:14. > :01:16.at Parc de Princes tonight. Tomorrow, it's knockout football

:01:17. > :01:33.against Northern Ireland, a place We have to stick to our game plan,

:01:34. > :01:37.do what we are good at, and that is how we will try and cause problems

:01:38. > :01:39.to the opposition. We need to take that emotional side out of it as

:01:40. > :01:48.much as we can. Wales, along with the UK

:01:49. > :01:53.as a whole, has voted to leave The result has been welcomed

:01:54. > :01:57.by Leave Campaigners, But First Minister Carwyn Jones has

:01:58. > :02:03.said he fears there'll be consequences for jobs,

:02:04. > :02:05.and can't see anything positive Well, let's take a closer

:02:06. > :02:12.look at the result. Just over 52% of voters

:02:13. > :02:15.in Wales backed Leave, Out of the 22 Welsh Council Areas,

:02:16. > :02:24.a total of 17 voted to leave the EU, with most support in

:02:25. > :02:29.Blaenau Gwent and Torfaen. Five local authorities

:02:30. > :02:31.voted for Remain. Cardiff, Ceredigion, Monmouthshire,

:02:32. > :02:36.the Vale of Glamorgan and Gwynedd. Our Political Editor,

:02:37. > :02:46.Nick Servini reports now, This day is British

:02:47. > :02:53.Independence Day! They don't look like much out

:02:54. > :02:58.in the rain on the streets of Newport, but more than 815,000

:02:59. > :03:03.people across Wales backed the cause promoted by these

:03:04. > :03:11.Vote Leave campaigners. Even for some diehards,

:03:12. > :03:16.it came as a surprise, but for many here it was a result

:03:17. > :03:19.of years of work. Last night, Wales voted

:03:20. > :03:21.for us to leave the EU. That's a fantastic result it wasn't

:03:22. > :03:23.just England pulling the rest of Britain out

:03:24. > :03:26.of Europe, out of the EU, And as we've seen

:03:27. > :03:35.throughout the campaign, You go home to a nice,

:03:36. > :03:39.little house... There was always a sense

:03:40. > :03:42.of the band of brothers taking on the establishment with the vote

:03:43. > :03:44.Leave campaign, and it generated excitement and enthusiasm that

:03:45. > :03:46.frankly the other side They just could not make

:03:47. > :03:51.their greater size count, and when they did start campaigning,

:03:52. > :03:56.they were too late to the party. The most prominent vote Leave

:03:57. > :03:59.campaign in Wales was the leader of the Welsh Conservatives,

:04:00. > :04:02.Andrew RT Davies. He says he was proud

:04:03. > :04:05.to play his part. The beliefs and aspirations

:04:06. > :04:12.of what we were seeking to achieve were magnified last night

:04:13. > :04:14.by the vote, the substantial vote, to recast our relationship with

:04:15. > :04:16.Europe. And I believe my team stuck

:04:17. > :04:18.to their convictions, stuck loyally with me,

:04:19. > :04:22.and we have succeeded with a family of activists that

:04:23. > :04:25.were in the Leave campaign. Their jubilation was in stark

:04:26. > :04:27.contrast to a downbeat news conference in Cardiff,

:04:28. > :04:30.in which Carwyn Jones He also refused to take

:04:31. > :04:34.responsibility for the result in Wales, saying he did not choose

:04:35. > :04:39.the timing of the referendum, but he admitted there

:04:40. > :04:42.was a disconnect between Labour Too many people in these communities

:04:43. > :04:50.feel that politics and our economy has left them behind,

:04:51. > :04:53.and we have a real task ahead There was also a call

:04:54. > :04:59.for stability from the leader In the next phase now,

:05:00. > :05:04.the chances are it could be even more difficult,

:05:05. > :05:11.as we are prepared to pull together as politicians and as civic society

:05:12. > :05:17.in Wales, to make sure that our needs are fully understood

:05:18. > :05:20.by Westminster and delivered upon. The result in Wales

:05:21. > :05:22.mirrored that in England. Cardiff chose to remain,

:05:23. > :05:25.with the biggest majority. Together with affluent areas

:05:26. > :05:34.like the Vale of Glamorgan of Glamorgan in Monmouthshire,

:05:35. > :05:35.and with the Welsh-speaking heartlands of Ceredigion

:05:36. > :05:37.and Gwyneth. Plaid Cymru, which is strong here,

:05:38. > :05:40.had urged his supporters With its university

:05:41. > :05:44.and large hospital, Bangor's The city's arts complex

:05:45. > :05:51.was built using EU cash. Its executive director says

:05:52. > :06:02.the future is now uncertain. It would be a great shame obviously

:06:03. > :06:08.of those opportunities are not available to these kinds of areas in

:06:09. > :06:12.the future. Again, I hope that in whatever new settlement comes, there

:06:13. > :06:17.will be the opportunities to obtain that kind of funding for

:06:18. > :06:23.economically disadvantaged areas. It was a very different story in

:06:24. > :06:27.Blaenau Gwent, the most disadvantaged area. It was one of

:06:28. > :06:34.many former industrial communities in the labour Hartland in the south

:06:35. > :06:38.Wales valleys to reject remain. It received millions in EU funding. I

:06:39. > :06:44.think people are trying to take control back from the Government. I

:06:45. > :06:50.think to get our country back owned and governed by ourselves. I think

:06:51. > :06:55.there are too many immigrants coming in and taking our jobs. For many

:06:56. > :06:56.years, Wales was considered one of the most pro-EU countries in the UK.

:06:57. > :06:57.Not any more. So, Nick, what's your

:06:58. > :07:06.assessment of the result? It's worth reflecting on the map and

:07:07. > :07:11.the breakdown of the results last night. Multicultural large cities

:07:12. > :07:19.like Cardiff voted to remain, a similar pattern to the UK, affluent

:07:20. > :07:30.areas voted to remain. Cleary the argument that we have too much to

:07:31. > :07:33.lose did take hold there. The Plaid Cymru heartland areas, almost

:07:34. > :07:38.instinctively, it would have been very difficult for them to vote to

:07:39. > :07:48.leave. But the entirety of the rest voted to leave, heavily on the Leeds

:07:49. > :07:54.side. Clearly the Leave campaign was very successful in persuading people

:07:55. > :07:58.to join their cause. A lot has been made of the social and wealth

:07:59. > :08:02.divide, but people have talked about a lot of these communities feeling

:08:03. > :08:08.left behind in the current economic climate, and in those terms,

:08:09. > :08:12.particularly at a time of relatively low unemployment, it is striking

:08:13. > :08:16.that they feel so alien aged from both politics and economic. Thank

:08:17. > :08:17.you very much. The economic case for Wales' future

:08:18. > :08:20.in or out of the European Union was key to the debate from the very

:08:21. > :08:22.beginning of this Several top Welsh business

:08:23. > :08:25.leaders backed Remain, highlighting the importance

:08:26. > :08:27.of the single market But Leave supporters argued

:08:28. > :08:32.businesses would still be able to trade with the EU after a Brexit,

:08:33. > :08:35.and that jobs wouldn't be at risk. So what effect will the Leave

:08:36. > :08:39.vote have on businesses Here's our Business

:08:40. > :09:00.Correspondent, Brian Meechan. Wales has a small number of big

:09:01. > :09:06.companies, including Toyota and Airbus. Airbus said it was concerned

:09:07. > :09:11.about future investments in its plant in the event Brexit. Back in

:09:12. > :09:19.2014, we announced a large investment in Wales which is still

:09:20. > :09:23.going on. We are increasing the plans to ramp up investments. But we

:09:24. > :09:28.will have to consider future investments, and I can't commit to

:09:29. > :09:31.doubt. They may not be many big companies in Wales, but they do

:09:32. > :09:42.employ lots of people. Around 30% of the private sector workforce.

:09:43. > :09:49.Medium-sized firms employ 12%, another big company has seen their

:09:50. > :09:53.share value drop significantly. The property sector is taking an

:09:54. > :09:56.immediate hit from the decision, as people think there will be less

:09:57. > :10:03.demand for costly housing and other building projects. We are a

:10:04. > :10:08.construction company that employs 180 people. The construction

:10:09. > :10:13.industry was particularly badly hit by the financial crisis that started

:10:14. > :10:18.in 2007, as investors stopped building. They hadn't planned for or

:10:19. > :10:21.expected Brexit. They are now concerned for the future. I don't

:10:22. > :10:28.think anybody planned by what happened today. As a country, Wales

:10:29. > :10:34.has benefited, in our view, from being members of the EU. The First

:10:35. > :10:40.Minister is calling for Wales to be given guarantees that it won't lose

:10:41. > :10:44.out financially from Brexit. Companies don't like uncertainty,

:10:45. > :10:50.but successful ones are able to adapt in challenging times. The view

:10:51. > :10:57.on Brexit is very different at this leech farm. Its trade all over the

:10:58. > :11:01.world, but their boss says that the EU regulations have been damaging.

:11:02. > :11:09.We may have to increase our breeding, and holds more stark, but

:11:10. > :11:14.I think over the long-term, once the initial setup is done, the overheads

:11:15. > :11:19.would be greatly increased by theirs. What happens next for

:11:20. > :11:23.businesses is uncertain. The plans to increase car production in Wales

:11:24. > :11:33.has asked the UK Government for assurances. The impact for the sale

:11:34. > :11:34.of Tata will also be watched. As we have heard...

:11:35. > :11:37.So, as we've heard, house builders and banks have been among those

:11:38. > :11:39.to see the value of their shares fall furthest today.

:11:40. > :11:42.The pound has also plummeted against the euro and the dollar,

:11:43. > :11:45.meaning anyone who's about to go on holiday in Europe or the US

:11:46. > :11:48.is going to find it more expensive, but that weaker pound will make

:11:49. > :11:51.Our Economics Correspondent, Sarah Dickins, is in

:11:52. > :11:53.the heart of Cardiff's business district tonight.

:11:54. > :11:59.Lots of financial turmoil on the market today, the First Minister

:12:00. > :12:06.expressing concern that Welsh jobs could be lost. Is that being

:12:07. > :12:09.alarmist? The First Minister is really worried on two brands, partly

:12:10. > :12:13.the job is closely related to the billions of pounds we have had in

:12:14. > :12:22.that special money we have been getting from the EU, but also

:12:23. > :12:25.because our economy in Wales is very influence, dependent, on foreign

:12:26. > :12:31.companies that have set up here. There are over 8000, employing

:12:32. > :12:36.150,000 people. Many of those came to the UK and to Wales to be part of

:12:37. > :12:41.the single European market, so that they could trade without tariffs and

:12:42. > :12:46.taxes, without those barriers. As you say, the financial market of the

:12:47. > :12:52.UK has really taken a hit. It has recovered a bit but billions of

:12:53. > :12:56.pounds have been written off from the economy and lowered. I am in the

:12:57. > :13:01.heart of the financial sector of Wales in Cardiff. It is an area that

:13:02. > :13:08.has attracted a lot of financial jobs. Deloittes, for example, has

:13:09. > :13:12.promised to bring 1000 jobs here. It all depends on the deal that can be

:13:13. > :13:16.done between whoever is leading our country and the European countries

:13:17. > :13:21.around Europe. Once in your loft firm has told me today that this

:13:22. > :13:30.morning to their clients try to get out of commercial deals because of

:13:31. > :13:34.the vote. -- law. Aston Martin were investing millions into the Welsh

:13:35. > :13:38.economy and they say that it is vital that Britain has a tariff free

:13:39. > :13:46.agreement with Europe. Either any immediate winners after the result?

:13:47. > :13:49.Exporters, there are products will be cheaper because the pound is

:13:50. > :13:55.lower. We do need to remember, those people who voted to leave for

:13:56. > :13:56.economic grounds, they believe that now the economy will be liberated

:13:57. > :13:58.and there will be growth. During his resignation speech,

:13:59. > :14:00.the Prime Minister David Cameron said the interests of Wales,

:14:01. > :14:02.along with Scotland and Northern Ireland, must be

:14:03. > :14:06.protected in the negotiations that will take Britain out

:14:07. > :14:08.of the European Union. The leader of the Welsh

:14:09. > :14:13.Conservatives Andrew RT Davies says the result is an opportunity

:14:14. > :14:15.for Wales to benefit economically, David Davies, the MP

:14:16. > :14:22.for Monmouthshire, was one of the most prominent Leave

:14:23. > :14:43.campaigners in Wales, David Davis, well done on a hugely

:14:44. > :14:50.successful campaign. Digit expect to win? No, we were up against the

:14:51. > :14:54.party political machines, big businesses and a whole range of

:14:55. > :15:01.NGOs. It was always going to be an uphill struggle with people from

:15:02. > :15:04.different political backgrounds. Careful what you wish for and all

:15:05. > :15:09.that. You have got what you wanted, what is the plan? The Government

:15:10. > :15:13.should have given us the plan as to what would happen if we were going

:15:14. > :15:19.to pull out. Now we're the reassuring noises that we needed. He

:15:20. > :15:25.made a wonderful and gracious speech, and I wish it had been said

:15:26. > :15:37.days ago. We need to reassure people, people have been told by

:15:38. > :15:42.Bush. My -- rubbish. My wife is Hungarian, for goodness sake. There

:15:43. > :15:45.is nothing xenophobic about this campaign, people are as welcome

:15:46. > :15:50.today as they were yesterday. Those contributing to this country are

:15:51. > :15:55.always going to find a warm welcome here. What would you say to people

:15:56. > :15:59.who will be deeply concerned about the markets, you know how difficult

:16:00. > :16:03.it is to sustain jobs in the Welsh economy. Would you be concerned that

:16:04. > :16:14.you have made it more difficult? No, we heard the right kind of noises

:16:15. > :16:17.from Mark Carney, for example, a lot of this is speculation, with people

:16:18. > :16:25.trying to make big amounts of money by buying and selling currency on

:16:26. > :16:30.the FTSE 100. Of course, there will be a boost for exporters. It would

:16:31. > :16:35.actually be quite a good thing for some people. We are not about to

:16:36. > :16:38.turn our backs on the European Union and pulling up a drawbridge, we want

:16:39. > :16:43.to see trade with the European Union and we want to see that going on

:16:44. > :16:48.with the rest of the world. You know how hugely divisive this campaign

:16:49. > :16:54.has been. That anger on both sides is not going to disappear overnight

:16:55. > :16:58.now we have the result. How did elected politicians like you, very

:16:59. > :17:04.prominent in the Leave campaign, how will you communicate that to people?

:17:05. > :17:08.We are all very professional, we actually get on much better with

:17:09. > :17:12.each other then you probably realise behind the scenes. What I do

:17:13. > :17:18.recognise is that 48% had concerns about this. This isn't a day for

:17:19. > :17:22.gloating. We need to realise that that 48% had genuine concerns, of

:17:23. > :17:28.course they have. We should reach out to them and say, we are not

:17:29. > :17:33.about to do anything stupid, we're not xenophobic, we want trade,

:17:34. > :17:36.managed migration, we want to be working and friendly with countries

:17:37. > :17:37.in and out of Europe across the world. Thank you very much.

:17:38. > :17:39.Our Parliamentary correspondent David Cornock is in Downing Street.

:17:40. > :17:41.David, no doubt that British politics has changed quite

:17:42. > :17:56.Yes, I have worked at Westminster for more than 25 years and there has

:17:57. > :18:00.never been a day like this one in that time. Little more than a year

:18:01. > :18:06.after David Cameron walked through that door as the newly elected we

:18:07. > :18:11.elected Prime Minister, he is now on notice to quit Downing Street.

:18:12. > :18:14.Conservative MPs are preparing to choose his successor. Boris Johnson

:18:15. > :18:23.is the favourite, but if you go to the bookies tonight, you can also

:18:24. > :18:26.get 16-1 against Stephen Crabb, the Work and Pensions Secretary, who is

:18:27. > :18:32.seen by some as a possible dark course in this contest. I was told

:18:33. > :18:36.by one Conservative MP that he doubted David Cameron's successor

:18:37. > :18:40.should be someone in favour of leaving the European Union, which

:18:41. > :18:44.would rule him out. And it is less than a year since we saw that swell

:18:45. > :18:50.of support for Jeremy Corbyn. He is now facing a vote of no confidence.

:18:51. > :18:53.We'll Welsh MPs support that? David Cameron isn't the only leader facing

:18:54. > :18:59.difficulties tonight. Jeremy Corbyn is facing a possible vote of

:19:00. > :19:03.no-confidence next Monday. His critics are not happy and think they

:19:04. > :19:06.could have done more in the remaining campaign. Among those

:19:07. > :19:08.critics was this MP. He did about ten rallies over

:19:09. > :19:11.the course of the campaign. If it were the short campaign

:19:12. > :19:13.for a general election, you would normally expect the leader

:19:14. > :19:17.to be doing ten rallies in a week, so I do think that it was

:19:18. > :19:27.a lacklustre campaign, not enough Jeremy Corbyn said that he did in

:19:28. > :19:32.fact travelled the length and breadth of the country, but he could

:19:33. > :19:33.face an awkward time in front of his MPs on Monday.

:19:34. > :19:37.We'll be returning to the referendum result in a few minutes,

:19:38. > :19:40.but let's turn to Euro 2016 now, and Wales play Northern Ireland

:19:41. > :19:42.tomorrow with a place in the quarter finals awaiting the winner.

:19:43. > :19:51.The vote from back home is headline news here too,

:19:52. > :19:55.but in the Wales camp there's been no talk of leaving Europe.

:19:56. > :19:58.Manager Chris Coleman is focused staying in the competition.

:19:59. > :20:01.Wales will be favourites tomorrow, and after dismantling Russia

:20:02. > :20:04.on Monday, the challenge now is to reproduce that performance

:20:05. > :20:22.Along with at least another 20,000 Welsh fans, the city of light is due

:20:23. > :20:27.to have a touch of red tomorrow, with the green and white army also

:20:28. > :20:29.adding to the colour palette in Paris. Following the referendum

:20:30. > :20:37.result, there is more than just football on the minds of these fans.

:20:38. > :20:41.It took me by surprise, I didn't expect that result. We had been

:20:42. > :20:44.staying in quite remote areas of France, we were with Danish and

:20:45. > :20:50.Dutch people, and they were all totally bemused this morning, not

:20:51. > :20:57.sure if it was foolish of brave. My mind has been taken off it with the

:20:58. > :21:02.football. I voted to stay in. We have had a lot of locals asking us

:21:03. > :21:06.about it. We have been concentrating on the football, but we woke up to

:21:07. > :21:11.the surprising announcement. But you have to get on with it. It was also

:21:12. > :21:20.discussed in today's press conference. It's on the news, but

:21:21. > :21:26.it's not our focus. We will talk about that when we get back. For

:21:27. > :21:32.Welsh footballers, it is the first year at Parc de Princes, but some

:21:33. > :21:37.fans will remember it as being the home of French rugby, where in some

:21:38. > :21:43.former games Wales won just three games. Tomorrow, it will be a

:21:44. > :21:47.different story. This match is physical. We know it will be a tough

:21:48. > :21:52.physical game against Northern Ireland and we will more than much

:21:53. > :21:56.that, as we always do. Chris Coleman's men may be the brave

:21:57. > :22:00.Brits, but Northern Ireland went on a 12 match unbeaten run before the

:22:01. > :22:07.start of this tournament. The last game between both sides ended in a

:22:08. > :22:12.drawer. The final score in March was 1-1 after a late penalty by Simon

:22:13. > :22:17.Church. A penalty shoot out would be a genetic way to decide whether

:22:18. > :22:20.Wales are in or out after tomorrow. -- dramatic.

:22:21. > :22:22.After finishing top of their group, above England and comfortably

:22:23. > :22:25.beating Russia, can it really get better for Wales?

:22:26. > :22:30.We will find out tomorrow, the game's live on BBC One Wales,

:22:31. > :22:39.S4C commentary too on Radio Cymru and Radio Wales.

:22:40. > :22:41.The Eiffel Tower is bathed in sunshine tonight.

:22:42. > :22:44.I hope you're getting some of this good weather back home.

:22:45. > :22:56.We do have some sunshine here in Wales, but there are a few showers

:22:57. > :23:02.around, looking unsettled in the weekend and feeling pressure. Those

:23:03. > :23:06.showers will be confined to coastal areas overnight, some clear skies

:23:07. > :23:11.and feeling less humid than the past few nights. More comfortable

:23:12. > :23:15.personally been tonight, overnight temperatures 11 to 13 Celsius, light

:23:16. > :23:19.to moderate westerly winds. Tomorrow, low pressure across

:23:20. > :23:24.Scotland and high pressure trying to build from the south-west. Tomorrow

:23:25. > :23:28.morning, a few showers, some could be heavy and thundery. By the

:23:29. > :23:33.afternoon, you are showers and more in the way of sunshine. A better

:23:34. > :23:36.looking and to Saturday, temperatures getting up to 19

:23:37. > :23:42.Celsius. A fairly quiet Saturday night, is even in sunshine, clear

:23:43. > :23:52.skies and light winds, those temperatures killing freshers --

:23:53. > :23:54.feeling fresher. In the countryside, down to nine Celsius. Sunday, a

:23:55. > :24:04.weather front pushing through from the west that will bring some ring

:24:05. > :24:08.with it. -- rain. Most of us will need an umbrella by the afternoon,

:24:09. > :24:17.Saturday is the better day. Those temperatures were range between 13

:24:18. > :24:19.and 14 Celsius. Sunday, more persistent rain heading our way.

:24:20. > :24:21.Have a lovely weekend. Let's return now to

:24:22. > :24:23.the referendum result. Wales, along with the UK as a whole,

:24:24. > :24:27.voted to leave the European Union. 52% of voters in Wales backed Leave,

:24:28. > :24:36.compared with 47% supporting Remain. Leave campaigners say it was a

:24:37. > :24:40.historic day. Let's get the final word then

:24:41. > :24:42.with our Welsh Affairs Vaughan, what does this result

:24:43. > :24:51.tell us about Wales? It tells us that Welsh politics is

:24:52. > :24:55.converging with English politics. The idea that they were very

:24:56. > :25:04.different, that there is not borne out. There was a little bit more

:25:05. > :25:09.enthusiasm for Remain in Wales, but not that much. We saw broadly the

:25:10. > :25:10.same patterns as received in England.

:25:11. > :25:19.What can we expect in the weeks and months ahead?

:25:20. > :25:25.A Lord of uncertainty. There are big questions that will need to be

:25:26. > :25:34.answered in terms of funding for Wales, in terms of the future for

:25:35. > :25:40.all Arab political parties. There -- all of our political parties. We

:25:41. > :25:50.need to keep an eye on Scotland and Northern Ireland. We live in a

:25:51. > :25:53.country of economic and financial and political uncertainty. It may be

:25:54. > :25:57.that it is a price worth paying and we will emerge looking a bit

:25:58. > :26:01.different but in a stronger and better place. That is what the

:26:02. > :26:05.referendum was all about. The question I have got is whether that

:26:06. > :26:08.was what was in people's minds when they voted.

:26:09. > :26:17.You can get much more analysis on how the referendum affects us in

:26:18. > :26:18.Wales on our website. I will be back at 8pm
