    The scale of this leave victory will surprise.

    24/1 on remain 40-45 & 100/1 on Remain <40 are fantastic bets.

    THis is the mother of all betting tips.

    East Ayrshire is Kilmarnock and lots and lots of very poor former mining towns. Its a surprise but not that much of one.
    This is good. If Scotland is closer to the UK baseline it makes it much easier to craft a result that both nations can accept.

    London is going to be pissed come what may.
    I don't think Scotland can be reconciled to exit. Given the massive discrepancy in results, I don't even think, in the future, that London may be, without some sort of special arrangement.

    These are very grave implications for the future of the entire U.K, and not just partisanship.

    Question for counting observers

    In recount, do rejected papers get reconsidered?

    Not normally. There are two types of recount - a bundle check, which is basically checking that all the bundles are in the right pile and with a flick through to confirm that they are all of votes for the correct party, and a full recount, where basically the whole count is redone from scratch.

    Be a nice idea if, having lost, you now bring the best of yourself to the new political reality to make it the best possible success.

    The best thing now is for Leave to take the reins. Cameron and Osborne are done for, and firm leadership is now going to be vital. The economy has to be held as stable as possible, a Brexit deal has to be done and millions of Leave voters have to be kept onside.

    I'm touched by those who have been asking after me. I've been packing to flee the country tomorrow.

    I have, however, found time to keep backing Leave at regular intervals tonight. The prices are incomprehensible.

    It will provide some minor compensation for having my country torn away from me.

    I'm relieved that you agree on the prices - I thought I must be going mad.
    I'd not put too much at stake on this referendum till tonight but I'm rapidly rethinking what it is appropriate to commit.
    Best bet is to move to Jobbik's Hungary, mate. Where they are more cosmopolitan.
    Enjoy your evening. Tonight is a night for Leavers to exult. The lunatics are taking over the asylum. We shall have to hope against all logic that it sort of works out ok.
    How long are we going to have to wait before you calm down too?
    I'm going to ration my use of "I told you so" in the coming months and years. But not very tightly.
    Be a nice idea if, having lost, you now bring the best of yourself to the new political reality to make it the best possible success.
    This is your fantasy, not mine. You make it work if you can. Don't expect me to write the cheque for it either.

    I look forward to finding out what the plan is at some point.
    Maybe once you've finished your childish strop (you lost, deal with it) we'll hear more from the sensible rational Alastair that still has a huge contribution to make.

    LATEST REUTERS CALCULATION:
    Leave 50.2%, Remain 49.9%
    This is based on 15 areas of 382 reporting and the BBC's most recent figures on the vote in Northern Ireland, which is the largest reporting area by population in the UK.

    I think it'll be 51-52% Leave.

    Scotland on my numbers will be 61% Remain.

    Better for Remain.

    It will be closer to 50% than 60%.

    That's actually good for Remain, if true (vs Hanretty, I mean)
    I don't understand how Hanretty got such a low figure for Remain in Birmingham. Always looked a bit suspect IMO.

    In a much poorer country which will see a catastrophic economic shock and poor prospects.

    You know all the stuff that Osborne said about the economy...it's going to be worse.

    Far too much. A conclusion that is always true.
    And of course in a tax efficient manner....

    Basildon, #EUref result:
    Remain: 31.4% (30,748)
    Leave: 68.6% (67,251)

    Par for Remain was 37%

    Pretty big if repeated.
    No coming back for Remain. London cannot save this
    Particularly with turnout depressed, even if just by 2-3 points as Prof Curtice thought.
    There is little evidence it is that depressed, Richmond on Thames 82% turnout, Lambeth up on general election etc
    The important point is the excuses have started. It was ☓ it was y. The premise is Remain have lost.
    Ok, but the weather hit the north and east particularly? (Edit/reply to previous comment in the thread)

    Very surprising result in the Western isles: Remain 55%. That can only be down to people believing the SNP. I was wrong to say they would certainly back Leave.

    It's on par. On par will not be good enough for remain.
    Well, Hanretty has Remain 3.6% behind, so it's better than his "par".

    Britain will be torn apart by this.
    Calm the fuck down, and get a grip.

    This "us" versus "them" stuff is no longer helpful.

    We all need to pull together now and make it work.
    I'm not pulling together with people who court xenophobia. Absolutely not.
    Well to be honest, Mr. Meeks, if you are not prepared to help the UK work and make its way in the world, then feck off to some country that you are happier to live in.
    Well said Mr Llama
