[Closed] EU Referendum - are you in or out?

This is the first election special I've watched...very interesting.

Oi! Shouldn't you be catching up on GoT??!?!

...and sure enough you can now get better than evens on Leave, in fact better than evens is available on Leave and Remain, struggling to resist the arb!

Just tried to buy euros. Every site I tried refused the sale!

I watched 2 tonight..even Khaleesi can't compete with this..

1/1....hmm.

Can I just say that "bongohooha" is arguably the best name handle on STW?

One thing the Beeb is doing better than ITV at is... Rita Chakrabarty on the News segments.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....

...oh hang on, Remain is now odds on everywhere.

Kind of disappointed with myself, as the betting markets have done almost exactly what I've predicted, and there was money to be made, but I'm not enough of a gambler

bongo, can get better than evens on Leave everywhere now - the exchanges which are possibly the most reliable guide to betting markets have Remain strongly favourite again.

And here is the point, you don't need to be a gambler just know that the results are going to be up and down at first - that spooks people so they push money the other way.
Buy Low - Sell High you just need the cash to kick it off

[b]Anyway both still 14.5 million from a win[/b]

Yeah, Skybet just changed after I posted that. 11/10 a min ago.

Tempted, but would have to put a chunk on both to see any sort of return.

Which exchange you using, aracer?

Grimsby 😆

Well yes, I know, but it [b]is[/b] still a gamble.

I'm currently several hundred up on the bookies and intend to keep it that way!

Looking at https://www.matchbook.com/events/politics/uk/eu-referendum-result/316717/eu-referendum-result

and of course http://www.oddschecker.com/politics/british-politics/eu-referendum/referendum-on-eu-membership-result

if your going to post ahead of the BBC can you drop in the result Bob

This Labour MP seems a fun chap.

A very I TOLD YOU SO..... type

then went on to list a bunch of stuff that has nothing to do with the EU

Over 6 MILLION votes counted, and thirteen thousand in it. This has the potential to rip the country apart.

Edit; one thousand.
Edit edit; three thousand.
Edit edit edit; thirty two thousand.

what happens if the results decided on just a couple of thousand votes? Do we have loads of recounts?

First off we all go kick [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/so-i-spoiled-my-vote ]MrNutt[/url] in the...erm...nuts.

Speaking selfishly, all I need is a narrow Remain win...

Pleasantly surprised at the scousers

[quote=v8ninety ]Over 6 MILLION votes counted, and thirteen thousand in it. This has the potential to rip the country apart.

Hopefully not - Scotland seems to have survived, and I reckon most people will find something else to worry about. If we vote to Remain that is - if we vote to Leave then there's going to be all sorts of stuff happening.

Can't we just [s]draw[/s] tattoo a cock and balls on his forehead?

and as a complaint to the BBC
http://www.bbc.com/news/politics/eu_referendum/results
The % by region are not that important and neither is the map. It's count that matters not the colour of the board. (IE Scotland & Wales have a really small population compared to England)

I don't think I can make it to 6am.....gonna give it another 10-20mins then zzzzzz.

Cannock Chase is full of racist mountain bikers 😉

Wish someone would shoot Jeremy Vine and dump his irritating and pointless gizmo charts.

Has ernie gone to bed?

Has ernie gone to bed?

I think him and Jamby have gone off fur a bit of spooning.... 😉

Has ernie gone to bed?

I believe he is currently trapped under the weight of his self-righteous indignation.

....or he's gone to bed.

*glitchy nudge*

No I'm still here.

And fairly happy as you might imagine.

I hope its quiet at work 2mrw...I'm going to be good for nothing.

So where do you vote nowadays ernie, Croydon? ISTR you used to be in one of those central London places which has voted strongly Remain.

No two channels have the same result at the same time. I cant keep up!

Well well, we've voted Leave here (Malvern Hills), which I didn't expect

Time for another caffeine hit. Douwe Egberts strength 5.

So where do you vote nowadays ernie, Croydon?

Yes in Croydon. But as a non-British EU national I didn't have a vote in this referendum.

I kid you not.

Can't believe how close it is. Up changing baby and now seems i wont get back to sleep for a while.

And fairly happy as you might imagine

It's flip flopping!

Done it the wrong way really. Should have had an early night, then go up about 4-5am.

Anyway, so it's looking like the pollsters could be wrong again.

[quote=BoardinBob ]It's flip flopping!

Well Leave are doing rather better than generally predicted I think

No
Fingernails
Left

Well Leave are doing rather better than generally predicted I think

Not really. I think everyone expected it to be very close. Ignore the politicians misdirection

Regular bookies have just give up...Skybet hedging it's bets.

It's flip flopping!

The results? Well yes, but I started off, like most people, fairly certain it would be a reasonably easy win for Remain. The results so far don't seem too bad at all.

Does anyone else want to slap the Tory Leaver on the beeb. There are going to be a lot of dissapointed people if it goes leave. Then he drops the Germans in....

I was thinking about the betting (which I've always found most reliable predictions long/medium term, even if they get it wrong often enough that I've made money) and the currency markets - could get very decent returns on Leave before the first results.

Jacob Rees-Mogg confuses me. I am against most of the things he stands for, but can't help liking him and finding him an engaging speaker.

Just heard the bizarre Bill Cash (I was on the loo) saying this is the "soul of the British" saying it's fed up with Europe.

Really? Given that it's been flipping back and forth over the 50% point for the last 5 hours, it must be schizophrenic.

He is a good speaker, just disagree with the words. Again banging on about soverengty and that the UK has given all it's power up. Guess you just keep saying it then it must be true

I think everyone expected it to be very close.

I don't think Cameron would have risked pledging to hold a referendum had he thought that. It always looked like Remain would win, there was nothing really to suggest they wouldn't.

The "it's going to be very close" thing is what you would expect from campaigners, they need to say that to get their vote out.

Opinion polls can't really be trusted on an issue like this - it's different territory to normal elections.

Victoria Coren interrupted him on HIGNFY to say "Can I just say I find you incredibly attractive"? 😆

 

Indeed ernie - Remain were supposed to win at a canter

Woke up to feed the babies, feel bad, guess they wont be getting EU passports

Stop being such a Dr Doom, Kimbers. It'll be fine.

*crosses fingers*

"Opinion polls can't really be trusted on an issue like this - it's different territory to normal elections."

Didn't have much success predicting the last one though.

Turnout will be key, as above the % by area and the map mean nothing. a high or low turnout for one side in a big region could change a lot more

Its amazing how much difference there is between the boroughs.

I wonder if the weather has affected the turnout. I thought about 80% was expected

Right, I am off to bed to spoon with Jacob Rees-Mogg.

Good luck to those staying up, and I am 99.3% sure Remain will win......probably.

The IncredibLy Tedious Bore Brothers on ITV right now... Fox and Campbell

Happy Trails, hoohaa.

I'm assuming common sense dictates smaller constituencies will report earlier so there are still some big numbers to come

Will be devastated if people have used this as a protest vote without grasping what this means exactly

Again most of the Leave speakers are continuing with the themes that just are not the fault of the EU. Some great interviews for jobs in advertising

The big numbers are London, at a guess it amounts to 15% of the electorate.

So things could change significantly in remains favour.

within 200k on my screen ernie, no signs from most of Brum & Manchester yet along with a lot of London

Rees-Mogg seems plausible, but then he comes out with the old "most of our laws are made in Brussels". Which is bollocks.

There is that big bar sitting way over to the right on the BBC chart still. I think also Birmingham which should be Remain. It feels like Leave at the moment though - can get 8/1 on Remain which is actually incredibly tempting

can get 8/1 on Remain which is actually incredibly tempting

Double bet by doing it in pounds...

and the pound now down at GFC levels... all looking good isn't it. How much gold is left?

I feel alienated from my country. Can I opt out of brexit; declare my house a seperate principality?

I don't get it. Who are these mass leave voters? Admittedly they're not up here in Scotland but I work with and socialised with people all over the UK and I never once got a sense of this. It was 90%+ remain

Jacob Rees-Mogg doesn't look too happy. In fact he looks like he's shitting himself. I wonder if he realises just what him and his mates have done?

I don't get it. Who are these mass leave voters?

You really have to ask that? Every small-minded racist, little englander and idiot who harks back to the empire days has crawled out the woodwork.

Der Fuhrer is on. I guess, barring the cities votes saving the day, we can look forward to a lot more of the shouty little weasel in the future.

Farage is disgusting

A win for decent people?
They fought the multinationals?

He really is clueless. We're doomed if this doesn't reverse

Listening to Farage it sounds a bit too much like some of the speechs by some of the people we later wish had never been elected to anything. Appealing to the base fears and hatred with a good chunk of ignorance.

I don't get it. Who are these mass leave voters?

edit 6 Million to go

I really wish we could swear on here
