The EU Referendum: Polling Day

[delta0]

No exit polls allowed but turn out has been reported as lower than expected.

Did anyone else notice that Poland had the audacity to project the Union flag upside down while trying to show support for the remain campaign.

Cheers for the insult guys

Even if you take it as an insult which I don't think it is. It's nothing compared to insults dished out to foreigners in these threads over last few months.

He gave his reason: the economy. Perfectly valid.

Getting abuse from so many for that is ridiculous!

Not valid: He regrets it.

How you people keep missing that part is amazing!

Yes hearing this is very true here too.

I work for a bookie and before I left I had a natter with one of the traders and for the outright markets we'd had around 900k staked.

Please explain for a betting noob

I too had a random "make sure to use a pen, or they will change your vote" crazy at my polling station.

Imagine how many people would be in on that for it to work! Polls close at 10pm, so what, 11 hours to check and change every ballot without observers noticing? You'd need an mi5 agent or voter!

Much easier to stuff the ballot box, or replace them entirely.

 

[FishFluff]

Says more about you tbh.

I"m not the one calling people who voted remain 'weak' or 'cowards'. Brexiters have acted like bullies all through the campaign.

If it's good enough for the Queen.



A case of living up to the username.

Voted remain and immediately regretted it! In principle I am broadly in favour of Brexit, because I think the EU is corrupt, inefficient and incredibly undemocratic. (I don't really care about migration per se as it doesn't effect me, though I do think more targeted migration would be preferable). but voted remain because I am scared of the economic consequences. Feel a bit cowardly.

Sadly, you won't be the only one completely suckered by the scaremongering tactics our Govt. and the BBC have been hammering out over the last couple of weeks. It's how propaganda works.

Both sides are guilty of that.

Well during my holiday have met just 5 remainers. Shockingly one was my best mate who changed his mind last minute... Good for me he wasn't registered to vote lol. We will almost certainly see a class divide in this with wealthy areas voting overwhelmingly remain and those less affluent voting overwhelmingly leave.

At my local polling station asked a few all out as expected. My company had the audacity to show a great big a3 series of posters "Part funded by the ESF"... Put a complaint in along with several other staff.

I do get a strong feeling that this country will be split after too.

It's not really upside down. It's sideways.

You hang a flag from the top, therefore it is wrong way round. It should look like this

 

[Jonners]

Yes hearing this is very true here too.

Any sources?

 

[Janesy B]

It's the wrong way round then, not upside down. Say what you mean.

Strange thing to get upset with.

They are the correct way round

 

[Cosimo]

Leave was accelerating away when I last saw it.

Yup, out of control, hurling insults and preparing for a head on crash...

We tried our best. We passionately put our facts and beliefs across, but remain shouted us all down. It's how it goes in this Country now.

 

[madindehead]

They are the correct way round

The flags on the right look the same as the projected flag...

 

[Janesy B]

They are the correct way round

and the ones on the right...

Let's just hope brexiters don't turn violent, we've already seen one murder Jo Cox and that was before the vote.

Can envision something like what happened in France with the supporters.
