Many citizens felt they no longer have democracy the leave campaign has throughout painted the EU and Brussels officials as a hotbed of unaccountable political elites who were not democratically voted by the British people.

Also the British are discontent with the scale of migration to the UK. Public unease has been fueled by a failure to prevent Immigration from putting pressure on the jobs market and public services.

The day has been dubbed as Independence Day because Britain can now be free of Brussels.

"Let June 23 go down in our history as our independence day," said top anti-EU campaigner Nigel Farage, leader of the UK Independence Party, who had promised Britons the chance to retake power from Brussels and rein in high immigration.
