Bad result for Remain in NewCastle
its full of students

Are they still there?

Except that in June it isn't; they've all gone home.

Great minds think alike

[ag]

Orkney Remain 63.2%, 68.3% turnout.

[ag]

Pound is collapsing.

[ag]

I am more concerned about Clakcmannashire: anemic.

Really keeping fingers crossed for Europe.

[ag]

What would have been a good Clakmannshire result for the remain side?

I do not know, but I hate seeing anything in Scotland at under 60%.

[ag]

Why have they stopped giving us more results? This is horribly nerve-wrecking.

[ag]

NI: Foyle reports 78.3% for remain!

[ag]

So, maybe terrible comparison, but could it be said that Labour Leave voters would be equivalent to the Sanders wing of the Democratic party?

More like "Reagan Democrats"

[ag]

Foyle 78.3 in. That's the border city of LondonDerry

Did we have any estimates for NI?

[ag]

Isles of Scilly: Remain 56.4%!

[ag]

So far, 6 of 7 areas reporting are for Remain Not that it matters, of course.

[ag]

turnout in glasgow 56.2%

Shyte!

[ag]

So far, 6 of 7 areas reporting are for Remain Not that it matters, of course.

So if Trump were leading 51-49 with Kentucky, Georgia, and North Carolina reporting he would not be doing well.

I did say it did not matter

[ag]

Lewisham allegedly at 83% for Remain, per unconfirmed reports on Torygraph liveblog.

Praying you are right!

[ag]

Hoping what we see for the moment is indication of polarization, rather than a swing. But not pleasant, so far.

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.

[ag]

So, it seems pretty clear England will vote to Brexit. The question is only whether the rest of the UK will manage to sway it the other way.

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.

[ag]

It is said that Liverpool will be 60% remain which would imply a remain victory overall.

Frome your keyboard to His eyes!

Have you looked into how much of 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.

Well, they will still buy those same cars, but they will just pay duty on them to the cash-strapped English government, struggling to pay pensions. In any case, they will not be buying as many cars as before (except for the Scots - but those will be in the EU, anyway).

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

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.

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

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

Well, suppose Cameron falls, Johnson is unable to form a government and Labour is elected. They would still be stuck with having to negotiate the exit and face the consequences. I would not want to be in that Labour government.
