Poll: The Official OcUK EU Referendum Exit poll (and results discussion thread)

[Danthus]

On the matter of postal votes, they go to the appropriate local authority and get counted alongside the 'normal' votes. In fact, postal votes are generally counted first as they are already at the count just not opened until ten.

Before any count is made the boxes are verified.

I voted in, but I've said all along a leave would make for interesting times. I don't think there was be any big issues either way tbh. I think leave campaigners will feel hard done by either way. Either we won't leave and they'll be upset, or we will leave but the terms of withdrawal won't quite live up to their fantasies.

How likely is it that London will tip it for leave?

I was at 147, why should someone with 100 get the same say as me....

And you wonder why Leave has such a strong following with comments like that. Not enough people listening to the "plebs" and too much pandering to the BTL/Market scumbags.

I was speaking to a friend tonight and he was strongly IN and admittedly for self interest reasons - he's got property in London (so rather keen on immigration), works in banking and now in a senior position so the next few years are where he can make his money to set him up for life... basically wanted stability in the short term and conceded that there are some long term risks

Jess, odds are all over the place now. Gone back to 62%/38% now.

 

[Rids]

As they've just mentioned, wouldn't surprise me if we see a strong Remain margain in London, probably offset by a strong Leave result in Essex though.

Doubtful surely. I imagine London to be a strong remain area.

 

[jimjamuk]

Why us that muppet milliband on the TV!

Jess, odds are all over the place now. Gone back to 62%/38% now.

No idea how to call it right now!

It was always going to be close! Still feel it's going to be Remain that wins it, by small margin!

London is always going to be massively for leave. (edit: I mean remain)

Tipping it is an overstatement. It's akin to saying Scotland is tipping it for leave. (edit: also mean remain)

 

[StriderX]

Expected Remain in NI Seat.

 

[Gilly]

Far too early to say, I think once the Southern votes are counted Remain will bounce back.

Lewisham are speculating a remain of 80%, London has a huge volume of voters.

It's very disappointing to me that I'm reliant on The south and the Celts

 

[Uther]

Wow sterling!

 

[datalol-jack]

How likely is it that London will tip it for leave?

Unlikely to tip it as such, but if the turnout is low, our battleship is under a rough barrage.

I recognise this big nosed guy. Where've I seen him before?

Some idiots in my area are letting of fireworks....

 

[Closing]

How likely is it that London will tip it for leave?

Not at all likely, have you been there lately?

Yeah some of the boroughs in Essex are going to have strong leave results

 

[Cavallino]

Wouldn't it be funny if the result was a 50/50 draw

 

[adam cool dude]

I doubt it will collapse; more likely contract to just a smaller core.

Which will mean our leave will make little to no difference as the EU will not be an influence any more in the world stage and will not be able to dictate what they wish.
