Good job BBC Wales, it looks like you've managed to leave the editing software rulers on the referendum logo there, green lines everywhere.

 

[nature boy]

If it's close, surely the UK wouldn't dare go through and leave?

 

[toweringinferno]

I live in newham right next to it, maybe i haven't seen the real barking.

Hey fellow Newham bro. Barking onwards towards Essex has a lot of racists people. When i lived in Essex for 3 years, it was constant racism on my way back from school.

 

[Shiggy]

The EU hostile to democracy and referenda? What a surprise!

Huh? Just if you don't follow the common rule of the EU (like accepting regulation and paying money), you also don't get the benefits. Which should be devastating to the UK economy.

Barking is the worst man

Yup, it's a terrible place.

UKIP will surge next election. They have been massively validated.

Blackpool votes leave.

Fuck you blackpool with your rediculous prices to even breath air.

I honestly couldn't tell you if these are real places or Game of Thrones cities. #BrexitOrNot #Brexit

HAHAHAHAH!

 

[KingBroly]

Who's staying up to see the end?

If I do, it'll be by coincidence and nerves keeping me up.

But regardless the result, there's gonna be a lot of pissed off people.

 

[Syder]

Who's staying up to see the end?

I do for every vote. I'm in this for the long haul.

 

[Hagi]

You really should just give up the pretence and admit you're a tory shire. You can join England lol

We're Scottish to the bone until it comes to politics then it's fuck everybody else. Boggles the mind to be honest.

 

[Tak3n]

Birmingham going to very close according to latest reports.

You got a source? As that is huge for leave as it is a big metropolitan city

 

[napalmjam]

Did she just say Swedish porn lol

 

[jerry113]

I just heard sweedish porn?

yep swedish porn.

I was just thinking that. All the people from outside must think we're taking the piss.

 

[Don'tBeWeird]

If you're surprised by this you've clearly never been to Burnley.

Spoiler

Lucky you.

Haha, I'm not surprised at all. But it's still incredibly frustrating.

Spoiler

I'm from Burnley.

 

[Fergie]

Who's staying up to see the end?

I'm off, the tension and reactions will fuel me till the end.

 

[Beefy]

Reporter on Sky.

So she will probably be wrong.

 

[Vanillalite]

I think a lot of people here are being too quick to blame racism on North voters, reality of living in these areas is that they rarely see ANY benefits from EU schemes, Scotland, Wales and London are the key places that get the money for rebuilding and projects to modernise the area where as the North usually tends to get nothing, that's ALWAYS been an issue in the UK since like the 1980s.

Exactly.

On a macro level it remain might seem appealing.

Yet people especially in certain rural areas look around in a micro sense and go wtf has this done for me or my local community?

 

[SuperSah]

Leave is creeping back

London kicks back

 

[Audioboxer]

I can't sleep. I was tired earlier but pumped now. Thankfully working back shift tomorrow.

 

[SymbiantXenos]

Scottish news just said no. 100% remain so far.

Praying my Scottish last name will get me a passport

 

[Sane_Man]

If London keeps us in the EU I won't say anything bad about Southerners for... 1 year. It's all I can promise but it's something.

Today I am ashamed to be a Yorkshireman.

 

[baxter2231]

So when the Leaves win and the markets tank, do immigrants still get blamed for that too?

Good buying opportunity if that happens, after the tanking settles down that is =)

 

[Tak3n]

How much tolerance does the status quo have? Would Britain leave the EU on a 50.2% leave vote for instance?

The pollster guy on tv said if turnout is over 70 percent it gives a mandate to the winning side

 

[Aureon]

Barking & Dagenham 62% for Leave.
first London borough to flip.

we're 20% in, and there's not much more Scotland to carry this through. Edinburgh better pull through.

 

[Hazzuh]

Unsurprised seeing places like Pendle vote to leave. Lots of the north has been left to rot for 30 years and this is voters showing what they think of political class.

Going by posts on here, those of us that live here didn't even know some of these places existed, lol.

 

[hohoXD123]

UKIP will surge next election. They have been massively validated.

Even if UK votes remain? They can't exactly demand another referendum, and with that their reason for being around is pretty much gone.

 

[MassiveNights]

Scotland wants to Remain in the EU.

England could be on its way to Leave the EU.

How can the union continue? Scotland needs to go it alone and apply to join the EU.

 

[Empty]

south buckinghamshire overperforms estimate for remain, even if it's narrow brexit. interesting!. maybe rich tory homeowners in south east will save us to save their precious investments.

 

[CrazyDude]

When will all the votes be in?

 

[Don'tBeWeird]

FFS Pendle.

 

[Jezbollah]

My constituency: Uttlesford (Safe tory seat)

#Uttlesford #EURef result: leave 26,324, remain 25,619 (rejected ballot papers 29). Turnout was 80.3%

 

[GazzaScotland]

Whatever the final result, I don't think I feel like watching Black Books anymore.

Any Scottish shows or movies someone would recommend?

Sweet Sixteen, Ae Fond Kiss, Red Road, The Angels' Share, Neds, Gamerz and The Wee Man. Some good, some great, some alright-ish?

Not all directed by Scots but still.

 

[Dambrosi]

Remain ahead by 85,000.

Squeaky bums all around. Still early days.

Noice one, Hammersmith & Fulham. 70% - 30 Remain.

 

[Tabby]

If London keeps us in the EU I won't say anything bad about Southerners for... 1 year. It's all I can promise but it's something.

I'll try to promise the same thing. At least Newcastle has done their part.

 

[DirtyManos]

I don't get it...doesn't the UK always score like top 5 or 10 in those happiness or "good" country ratings....

I swear you'd think the fucking world was falling apart and there were roaming gangs from hell with how you heard the discussion.

Haven't really kept up with this, always thought Remain would win out easily. Is there even a "Leave" plan after it wins??

 

[jellies_two]

Scottish news just said no. 100% remain so far.

 

[Audioboxer]

Praying my Scottish last name will get me a passport

Another 2 areas just in, still 100% remain in Scotland.

Edinburgh is the last biggest one here to come in I think.

 

[Huw_Dawson]

I am watching Critical Role in 20 minutes. When I get back I expect Leave to have not won. K?

 

[crinale]

So urbanized area vs country side seems to be universal trend..

 

[Acorn]

Haha Brian Taylor with the dig.

 

[MassiveNights]

Is there even a "Leave" plan after it wins??

Nope.

 

[jm89]

Hey fellow Newham bro. Barking onwards towards Essex has a lot of racists people. When i lived in Essex for 3 years, it was constant racism on my way back from school.

I haven't lived their long enough, see alot bengali and pakistani people in barking so thought it would've been different, i guess not.

 

[dabig2]

I'm finding it particularly puzzling the Leave votes seem to be coming from rural/non-cosmopolitan areas. Not to play into the "Leave voters are racist angle", but is this maybe just a lack of exposure to immigrants?

I hope there's a lot of studies poring over the data in the future. I think you'll find a lot of similarities to the USA and its more rural/country regions of the South and Midwest.

 

[Covfan]

Nuneaton and Bedworth grrrrr.

I'm from London and just for tonight I'll say Yorkshire is poop.
