I have read this post a few times and still have no idea what you are talking about.
Yes Waltham Forest, remain! What was the %?
I've got no idea, but we've seen a huge swing towards remain in Edinburgh in Glasgow and basically all of Scotland is yellow so I defiantly think it's a possibility.
Incredible stuff so far. Didn't think this would be all that close.
Unfortunately, and maybe it's just the emotion ruling my head at the moment but seems clear to my current brain, I agree. The coalition has fallen apart.
I can only hope at this stage that "Project Fear" really was a lot of bullshit scaremongering, because otherwise a lot of people are about to be shat on economically.
This might sound silly but would a leave vote effect Holiday Insurance in Europe and using the European Health Card?
Vale of White Horse is a place.
My geography is not as good as I thought it was.

Should I go to sleep, or is there any way this sways to Remain?
Time to weigh up the options for where to move to when I finish my PhD.
I'm from a working class background, as are all my family. Apparently though because I like the options available in Europe for work (research in my case) and living arrangements, that probably makes me a toff to the leavers.
Watershed moment for the country. Totally shit the bed.

Farage: "I now dare to dream that the dawn is coming up on an independent United Kingdom."
Look at the replies on that. fecking cnuts.
Ladbrokes - Leave 1/6. These are the ones to look to in terms of political betting. Looking harder and harder for the Remain camp to claw this back.
I know this isn't really the place for such discussion, but if you believe in local rule/independence, then why are some Scottish nationalists so pro-EU?
To me the EU makes no secret of intentions to one day be a state, so what difference does Indy from UK make?
Paging @Cheesy for this one too.
You ain't seen nothing yet.
Pound sees biggest one day move
The pound is now down 8% at $1.36, its biggest ever one day move (it moved by 7% in 2008).

stock market trading at -7%
I don't understand how these politicans can be proud of the leave vote, putting the country in another recession, how is that cheerable
Eastleigh votes leave, and they have a Lib Dem council. Time to go to sleep!
Just tonight I didn't think it'd be enough, even with a Leave. But now...seeing these massive Remain majorities compared to England, I'm struggling to see any justification as to why we should continue to be a part of this union. The economic arguments seem silly now when we're seeing the way the pound is performing, and I suspect this isn't just a sole feeling...what the feck do unionists argue for now?
Ruth Davidson, for example, performed well in the elections, but how does she succeed now when she's been on a pro-EU platform that has been annihilated? The SNP can at least argue they warned us this could happen, but the other parties have always told us everything would be fine. If it isn't...I don't see why we'll remain in the union apart from simply not being allowed to leave.
Conservatives could be in power for another 15 years.
I've never come across that place before either.
Good stuff
Indeed. We've lost.
They don't care, they're minted, the pain of the common man is the only thing that gives them excitement at this point.
Did Boris actually make the difference?
Would more Labour supporters have voted differently if we had had a year of Burnham as leader instead of Corbyn?

not in the immediate future, we will be leagally part of the EU for the next 2 years at least, after that you will probably have to have separate health insurance when you travel to europe
This does concern me, but I'd argue that the EU is still far, far away from being a state, and would likely see extreme opposition from actually becoming one. I just have no faith whatsoever in the figures likely to be leading the UK if we leave, or the ones currently in charge.
I've become increasingly sceptical of the SNP recently...but a campaign like this reminds me of the fact that figures like Salmond and Sturgeon are truly committed to independence, unlike the selfish self-interest of guys like Boris and Cameron.
1.37 against the dollar. Fecking idiots
I imagine we have two years left of the European Health Card.
Decent effort, Manchester.
I'm honestly not so sure. The problem for Labour is that this issue runs far, far deeper than Corbyn. I think you'd need an inspirational, once in a generation type figure to reverse some of the trends we've seen.
The fat lady has all but sung now.
It's effectively over.
Well done Manchester
Manchester votes remain, not enough in it though. Only 60-40.
that is scary! i mean it will probably bounce back a bit when everyone calms down a bit but its scary.
It's ok, Boris will apologise.
