Support NeoGAF

[Tak3n]

Birmingham indications as strong as 60 percent remain. Huge deal for the remain camp

 

[Heshinsi]

Boris Johnson for PM in 2020, Gove as Chancellor, Farage as Home Secretary.

Enjoy everyone!

The darkest of all timelines

 

[Alanae]

Why the fuck are people shooting themselves in the face as an anti-establishment vote.

Fuck the people in this country.

 

[Ishan]

Question from an outsider.


Where does the BBC generally stand on the left-right political scale?

On international stuff pretty much one of the few news outlets I trust for non bias dunno about domestic to uk

 

[SuperSah]

Hartlepool 70% out!

 

[ShogunX]

To be fair peope in hartlepool caught and hung a monkey they accused of being a spy.

To be fair he was speaking a foreign language.

 

[Baybars]

I don't think I'll ever understand why white working class people vote to make themselves poorer just to spite immigrants

 

[UpDownLeftRight]

You know what blows my mind? The leave vote seems to be based on "Fuck you rich guy" when they're the ones who will get by.

 

[tomtom94]

Who would have thought that if you consistently screw people over then desperately call on the to support you it doesn't always work, Dave?

Question from an outsider.


Where does the BBC generally stand on the left-right political scale?

Depends who you ask. It's either a stuffy mainstay of the conservative establishment, or a hotbed of far-left subversion.

 

[Erevador]

WOOSTER!

 

[stan423321]

Hartlepool at 69% leave

sources from people there, not final yet

Good source.

 

[Kathian]

Notable on another Scottish Referendum EU citizens would again have a vote...

 

[Ravensmash]

Considering some of my more politically minded friends called it 'Tory TV' I'm going to take a guess at them being right leaning

And yet the more conservative leaning population would claim them to be lefties

They tend to piss off both sides, so they do a good job.

 

[Megasoum]

Thanks guys

 

[Inversive]

Hartlepool, #EUref result:
Remain: 30.4% (14,029)
Leave: 69.6% (32,071)

My hometown is trash

 

[Abraxas]

Question from an outsider.


Where does the BBC generally stand on the left-right political scale?

Its publicly funded so they are supposed to be UTTERLY non-partisan. I think they skew slightly left.

 

[nOoblet16]

It's insane volatility considering how quickly it fell and how liquid this currency pairing is.

The fluctuation is excepted though, considering the situation.

 

[jellies_two]

Lord Ashdown pre-emptively stating to the news that whatever the result, whatever margin, it must be executed as best it can be, no back-sliding.

 

[Camoxide]

When are we expecting the bigger results?

 

[system11]

Considering some of my more politically minded friends called it 'Tory TV' I'm going to take a guess at them being right leaning

It's the opposite - they tend towards the left but it's not quite as obvious as it used to be. It's all relative though to your own opinions.

 

[RK9039]

Unfortunately they all have Yes for Mayor Rahman on them.

That used to funny, turns out they found nothing on the guy.

 

[Ty4on]

A 2% drop? Wasn't sterling at the same level like two months ago?

Watching Bloomberg one analysis predicted a 10-15% drop if they voted leave.

2% this quickly is huge for a big currency. They barely move in a normal day.

 

[Jezbollah]

Hartlepool 70% out!

Not a surprise. Expect the same for other large coastal towns on the east such as Hull.

 

[Stallion Dan]

what will happen to eu immigrants living in the uk if we voted leave?

Nothing, they are here already, same as UKers elsewhere.

 

[pigeon]

A lot of it is just the chart.
1.48 to 1.42 is like 6 cents.

Another way to say that is that the pound lost 5% of its value in an hour. You can see on the chart how far this is out of trend.

 

[Liberty4all]

But the reasoning you've posted here is purely racist and xenophobic.

It's not at all?

 

[Officerrob]

I secretly want to see Leave win this. It would be a terrible result but sometimes you just want to watch the world burn.

How old are you?

 

[SymbiantXenos]

Imagine the border checks for England into Scotland and vice versa.

GIANT TRUMP LIKE WALL

 

[Hasney]

Time to hit the strong alcohol.

I suggest rum.

I'm having rum

Going to have this then try and sleep. Love the name!

[HorseFD]

Best site with UK maps and up to date results?

BBC seems to be more up to date than The Guardian

http://www.bbc.com/news/politics/eu_referendum/results

 

[gngf123]

Basildon, here comes near 80% leave.

 

[Carl2291]

Birmingham will have an expected 500k plus people. Pretty big win for remain if true.

 

[kmag]

Hopefully if leave win Nissan will have some 'unfortunate' news for the those racist fuckers in Sunderland. So worried about immigration yet they're the least 'affected' by it in England

DAFUQ!?!?!?

 

[Silphonica]

Depends what the government wants to do with them, it's not clear what would happen. If UKIP was in power, according to their manifesto, they'd get rid of EU immigrants who migrated here after 2004. Good thing they're not in power.

fuuuuuuuuuuuck

 

[Syder]

When are we expecting the bigger results?

I always thought they came in as they're finished counting, right? So, quite a while.

 

[Geminosity]

Whew.

ooh! what's this from?

 

[Sakura]

Whatever happens I wish you the best UK.

 

[Gandalf]

Basildon... Huge vote to Leave.

 

[Hazzuh]

Bas will be hugely for Leave I think.

 

[liquidtmd]

Basildon Remain - 30,748 Leave - 67,251

 

[Guerrillas in the Mist]

You know what blows my mind? The leave vote seems to be based on "Fuck you rich guy" when they're the ones who will get by.

Yup, much of that EU funding goes to many of these deprived areas, and I don't see the Leave camp promising to up regional spending...

 

[Lashley]

Leave's running away with it

 

[Pie and Beans]

Democracy doesn't work because stupid people are always the loudest

Dreading the final result.

 

[Jezbollah]

Basildon OUT, no surprise there.

36k margin

 

[Fergie]

more like 2% and it went up a bit after as well.

 

[GnawtyDog]

I'm kinda foreign to the national debate inside Britain about remain/leave but they've been dancing around this for quite a long time (LONG TIME). I always thought the refusal to adopt the Euro and drop the pound sterling was very telling about the weakest link in the chain - in terms of commitment.

A new future awaits.
