I think Basildon was expected to be strong for Leave

Starting to look like the remain hopes are clinging on to the cities results.

WTF happened in Merthyr Tydfil? Do they think they're going to be rescued by a Johnson government?

Yep, I can vouch for Basildon being a shocker - no surprises on the way they voted though

79% turnouts, tho.

Amazing the North voting for BoJo. Like he gives a **** about them, he just wants to be PM.

I wouldn't expect that based on anything we've seen so far - just the NE where Leave has done better than expected, those big wins for Leave are in places where UKIP MPs have got elected (or got very close). I think we need to see how London is going before drawing any conclusions at all.

Like Merthyr Tydfil, it's another result which isn't really surprising. To generalise, the population is fairly homogenous several generation British and with high levels of unemployment.

Not seen a single 'good' result for remain yet. Scotland seems to be relatively sensible, I suppose.

@bongo vote Leave is not voting for Boris - its voting for leaving to EU consistent with Corbyn's long term campaigning

@v8 Scotland is only narrowly Remain

Lots of large Remain votes not yet declared - it may well be that those which we expect to vote Remain vote even more solidly with high turnout. To soon to tell.

Well off to work, wonder if I should pack the Ardbeg, feel like a may need a stiff drink later if only to get the mental image of the overjoyed leavers one handed typing away.

But there are a number who are voting to protest the current government or to "hurt" the Tories. Many in here have it as their silver lining plan.

[quote=lazybike ]BBC ignoring the money markets...

money markets are just doing a combination of reacting to what they're seeing and trying to make money out of what's happening - I'd take them as a decent indicator in the medium/long term, but sure as heck not on a minute by minute basis. Much as I hate to admit it, I'm with Wee Eck here.

Looking at the betting odds (which isn't terribly different to the money markets) I was wishing earlier that I'd placed a bet on Leave - tempted to see what I can get on Remain now.

Amazing the North voting for BoJo.

Except they haven't. Even daft working-class northerners can work that out. Although you obviously haven't.

@aracer...agreed, but what the market does is still newsworthy.

I put £80 on 6:1 leave. It was to be some consolation to contribute to my holiday to France if we left.

That's funny, I thought it was you who were showing signs of a chip on your shoulder.

Still, at least I'm not accusing northerners of not knowing what they're voting for, eh?

It will be when we are up to 12 million for one side, right now it's guess work. Though give me 10k and a fast trading platform a day I reckon there is money to be made. I can't decide if it's more or less than playing the betting exchanges though

So how many MPs have UKIP got in the North of England?

Don't tell me.......the political map has completely changed since the general election last year?

VINCE Cable just claimed that Ken Clarke has said CallMeDave will not last for 10 seconds if the Leave side carries it.

There was an arb with the bookies for a minute - had gone by the time I'd clicked through though (and TBH I'm not sure I'm risking the arb working tonight, it's moving too fast)

Leave now solidly odds on with the bookies, though the 2/1 on Remain which was very tempting has now gone.

The guy I'm on shift with is doing just that, and covering any potential losses with a small bet on Remain winning between 55-60% of the vote. 22/1 on Sky Bet.

Lambeth and Wandsworth - as I suggested above that's suggesting a trend back towards Remain, both I think better for Remain than expected, and a lot of votes.

I was going to suggest the BBC were missing the point with Swansea suggesting it was significant that it voted to Leave when it was supposed to be Remain, but quickly rescued by noting the significance of Lambeth and Wandsworth. In a way those results are almost as significant as Newcastle, and I'm expecting the betting odds to have moved...
