Farage had apparently conceded to Sky News reporter and Boris might or might not have, it's all based on turnout apparently, which I'm half-smugly going to say I said would happen when it was announced: The Brexiters or EuroSceptics as they used to be called and Kippers especially have always been very loud and very determined - UKIP don't win MEP jobs because the majority of people like them, they win because not enough people care about it - the 'all' the remain camp had to do was get enough people to be bothered to vote as I believe the majority of people are more liberal and more in favour of the EU, they just don't get all hot and bothered about it.

Going to bed now, fingers and toes crossed I don't wake up to a leave vote, Black Friday won't be a good start to anyone's weekend.

@faisalislam
IN sources say two late poll shifts: 1. status quo reversion on economy 2. Core Labour Remain turnout soars on revulsion at Leave tactics

A 55/45 Scottish result didn't put the issue to bed as far as the SNP are concerned

but you called it resounding and convincing so the issue is whether you wish to do a Boris and change your mind or you want to be a man of probity consistency and principle
The excitement of knowing which way you go is as nail biting as the result 😉
FWIW i say a result that close does not put the issue to bed and I think the result will be close enough here that it wont, whatever way it goes

It's nights like this I wish the forum had better Twitter integration. There's some gold out there tonight.

Just read:

"Gibraltar announces before Sunderland. A rock beats a hard place."

it's all based on turnout apparently

Yes it's generally accepted that the Leavers are more motivated than the Remainers so a high turnout would indicate that both sides have voted.

Now I have always thought that the Remainers would win fairly comfortably, and after all that's the only reason why Cameron risked a referendum.

So a high turnout points to a Remain victory.

However there's a little problem here and I'm having slight doubts. It would appear that there are more people registered to vote than in normal elections - what does that mean?

It suggests that people who don't normally vote are determined to vote in this referendum. In my opinion this doesn't bode well for the Remainers as I expect that it might be an "anti-establishment/anti-status quo" vote.

But we'll see soon enough.

similar scenario with scottish elections. I think it balances out to pro rata increases for both sides, has little effect on the result..

@Lifer regional estimations based on BBC analysis

Complexity of process seen with Newcastle projection which seems quite different from actual of 50.8 / 49.2 Remain

BBC, just so glad I don't have to listen to Robert Peston

Yeah it's early days but I'm getting more convinced that higher voter registration suggests that people who don't normally vote because they they don't trust politicians ie, Westminster politicians, have voted in this referendum.

These people aren't the sort of people likely to trust EU politicians, imo.
