Scotland's First Minister Nicola Sturgeon has accused Boris Johnson of being responsible for the start of "Project Farce" as the fallout continues from last week's Brexit vote.  

She was responding to Mr Johnson stating that "Project Fear was over" - a reference to the supposed "scare tactics" used by the Remain side.  

First Minister Arlene Foster says leaving the EU offers new opportunities and she criticises Remain supporters for "prophecies of doom".  

Mrs Foster campaigned for a Leave vote in last week's EU referendum. 

David Cameron says he doesn't believe the rules set out in the Good Friday Agreement have been triggered to enable a border poll on the reunification of Ireland.

Mr Cameron was responding to a question in the House of Commons from East Belfast MP Gavin Robinson. Sinn Féin had made the call for the border poll following the EU referendum result.

UK financial markets remain volatile in the wake of the Brexit vote, with sterling plunging to a 31-year low against the dollar, and some share trading temporarily halted.

Yields on 10-year government bonds sank below 1% for the first time.  

David Cameron says the government has a "fundamental responsibility to bring our country together" in the aftermath of the EU referendum.

Mr Cameron said negotiating an exit would be the civil service's most complex and important task for decades. Labour's Jeremy Corbyn warned his own party - and the Conservatives - against "internal factional manoeuvring".

Mr Anderson replaces Vernon Coaker, who resigned in protest at Jeremy Corbyn's leadership.  

Irish Foreign Affairs minister Charlie Flanagan says there has been a spike in interest in Irish passports since the UK voted to leave the EU, but warns an "unnecessary surge in applications" would place "significant pressure" on the system.

"The increased interest clearly points to a sense of concern among some UK passport holders that the rights they enjoy as EU citizens are about to abruptly end," he said. "I want to state clearly that this is not the case." 

David Cameron says the devolved administrations in Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales will be fully involved in the negotiations which follow the UK's decision to leave the EU.  

Mr Cameron said all key decisions would have to await for the arrival of new prime minister but "a lot of work" can begin now.

Northern Ireland Assembly members have returned to the debate on the United Kingdom's withdrawal from the European Union.
