Such a remarkable result and despite my expectation that only Leave could win I refused to put any money on it till today. I think I'm up about £2k off less than £400 staked. Let's get another referendum that the establishment refuse to lose as soon as possible.
I cannot believe that we are even this close to potentially getting out of this nightmare. It's just marvelous. If we do go onto Leave, this day will be celebrated long into the future.
Betfair implied probability of Leave is 92%. Unless it all changes round, this will be by far the most I've ever won on a bet. (But it's still a bad result for the country.)
Truth is that the fucking governments have ignored the messages the British people sent it in EU elections, and now they're getting their comeuppance.
Nigel Farage - exact quote: "We will have done it without a single bullet being fired".
Tomorrow people will be BURNING EU FLAGS IN THE STREET, not just in Britain, but across the EU.
From the BBC: "However former Labour leadership candidate Liz Kendall tweeted: "May I humbly request no 'this is a huge wake-up call' comments. Some of us have been "awake" for a little while." " Wasn't Liz Kendall prominent in the 'Remain' campaign?
Pound now at 1.36 to the dollar - probably won't be going to Disneyworld this year.
Trump can buy St Andrews for 10% less than he could 6 hours ago.
Holidays will cost 10% more. First redundancies in the travel industry ?
No - we'll concentrate on holidays at home - boost the UK economy.
We might also get the tour operators to stop charging exhorbitant prices during school holidays - if they can make a profit at other times then there is no need for them to.
"Good result. You get it, folks. When I come back as POTUS, I trust you will have elected a parliament of Grown-Ups. These people don't serve you well..."

She argued Remain the the Spectator debate. Lost that one too!
What is it with left-wingers shooting themselves in the foot? Trying to get Sanders nominated in the US. Succeeding in making Old King Islington Labour leader in the UK. These are Liberal coups. This weekend might be Labour's last chance before it slides into irrelevance, but is there anyone strong enough left to wrestle Corbyn into submission?
But this vote has been all about "taking back control" and control is what socialists like Corbyn live for. Rent controls will be one of the first demands, I expect.
Oh Nigel did you really have to say "without a bullet being fired"?
Prat.
UKIP and Vote Leave didn't fire anything - I expect he's referring to his speech saying that when voting fails you have to resort to bullets - or words to that effect.

Now I have to make sure I am not dreaming.
Where was NPXMP when Remain needed him
As I said earlier - WE ARE F*CKED!!!'

Farage now in full flow.
I feel sick to the stomach.
"Good result. You get it, folks. When I come back as POTUS, I trust you will have elected a parliament of Grown-Ups. These people don't serve you well..."
Farage!!!!!!!!!!
The BBC live results on their website dont show the margin in each authority which annoys me.
A site that showed comparison to par would be magnificent - PB is best I can find for that!

That would have been the next step, eventually, without this vote...
Remain: 101,788 (60%)
Leave: 67,816 (40%)
I was astounded !
Complete non voter.
Still - I agree - a bit unfortunate.
"The dawn is breaking on Independence for the United Kingdom"
