RIP the pound, RIP the City of London.

They were good while they lasted.

RIP UK. RIP Great Britain.

I think Irish reunification may be on the cards.


Better said, long live Uk. They have lost enough of their National identity in these past decades.

Well, now they will loose their physical existence. England will have to stand alone.

Have you looked into how much Goods the Uk imports from the Eu opposed to how much it Exports?

Dont think Germans will lose their huge Car market just because of this, if Britain hurts, big mama Merkel hurts.

In any case. My point was not that Europe would treat UK badly, but that UK itself would only exist in history books.

Someone said the referendum was not legally binding. I don't think UK will exit the EU regardless but will probably go back to the negotiating table. It's a shame people are blaming the EU for the mess Tories caused. If there is a snap election, I think Corbyn will need to shine more.

They will exit the EU when leaves win.

Early results are encouraging, but still too early to call this.

Kettering a bit stronger for Leave.

Wow as soon as results starting to come in it started to look good for Leave.

Genuinely surprised (but obviously delighted) by what's happened so far.

Long way to go though! Smiley

Most reports I've read is it was weaker than expected.

Shetland also IN. Which is interesting only because it was always going to be difficult to project.

@toadmeister: A psephologist at ITN’s headquarters is calling it for Leave in the green room. Thinks Leave will win by two points. #ITVEURef

So what do people have as the probability of each result? It seems pretty close to 50-50 right now.

That seems about on par for a 50-50 election.

Working-class Labor voters in industrial areas are among those most supporting leave. This is no shock.

RIP the pound, RIP the City of London.

They were good while they lasted.

I am not sure a leave decision is negative on the long run.  I agree on the short run there will be economic dislocation. 

I have yet to see a good rationale as to why London will remain a major financial center if trade and service barriers are reimposed on England as most of the European heads of state have said they would be.

Labour are saying that a lot of their voters are voting leave to give the Conservative Government a kicking.

It will not. England will be smaller, meaner, more blue-collar, more industrial and generally much less fun.

No, but the margin is.
