Brexit vote: UK must 'clarify' stance says European Commission

European Commission chief Jean-Claude Juncker has urged UK to "clarify its position" on Brexit as soon as possible. He told the European parliament that Britain and the EU remained friends but it needed to state its position to avoid uncertainty. PM David Cameron is to meet European Union leaders for the first time since the UK voted to leave later on Tuesday. He is stepping down to allow his successor to conduct exit negotiations. Mr Cameron has said it will be up to the next prime minister when to trigger the formal method by which a country leaves the EU, Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty.
