Isn't that bad news? :nervous:
Expect it'll only be of marginal difference, was more concerned that Remain voters wouldn't get out in London and apparently that's been reaching over 80%, up by 15-20% on the GE.

GIB IS A LANDSLIDE!

'mom'? Guessing you're not from Liverpool?

That vote isn't that strange in itself as those already here may see some benefit to leaving.
Maybe but I'd have thought most would choose to remain based on principle.

Even 75% is very high. When reading earlier it seemed most people working at the polling stations estimated 70-80%
Yeah of course, always expected a higher turn out for this one. Stakes are higher, and I think people realize that it's a one time opportunity essentially. By the time this opportunity would come round again the whole landscape will have majorly changed most likely.

I also think social media helps to encourage a high turnout, despite it being responsible for so much of the absolute nonsense being spread.

He can't control the media's chosen priorities during the campaign and for obvious reasons that's been the Prime Minister. I've had no issue following his interviews and events, if people haven't found them I'd argue they probably don't care enough to now be complaining about his lack of visibility.
A major part of his role is to convince the undecided of the benefits of the Labour movement - it doesn't help if he's just speaking to the echo chamber. He's utterly failed/ing at this to date, and I don't see how this will possibly change considering his approach with the media and skills at presenting a message.

Don't like the sound of Sunderland.

Depends what you mean by bad. They were always going to vote Leave, just depends what margin.
Jeremy Vine suggested earlier it was going to be very close, he didn't sound like 60+% was a very likely result based on the early polls... :nervous:

Feck off Farage - blaming a possible remain result on the government getting an extra 2 million voters. Bellend.

He's been an invisible disgrace, if that makes sense.
He has. I can't accept it, given the overwhelming views to remain of those who put him in his position.

Marginal Remain expected from Newcastle.

Always preferred them to Sunderland.

I'm very worried by the difference between these New/Sun projections compared to their earlier models...
