Gibraltar Remain 95.9 % Aaaaaahahaha! Good catch! I forgot about Gibraltar. Of course they did. It's full of bankers and hedge funds for whom REMAIN is pretty much a given.... But to add insult to injury, most these guys actually rent homes in Spain because land is obviously in short supply on The Rock ;) They'd need their passport all of a sudden :D |

Sunderland: Well with 5 from 382 so far, the experts opinions are suddenly changing. The thing many are forget it's not down to who wins a region it is the total of IN vs OUT. MP's are saying that this is a massive wake up call for the entire political class. It needed it!!!! Now saying "too early to call & leave = 50.5 Remain = 49.5 |

This going to be a nailbiter. This reminds me of like listening to a table tennis match on radio:) |

Anybody know how I can watch this live down here in Greece? iPlayer, for example, doesn't really work (for most programs but I'll go check now just in case) |

BTW, here's a nice conspiracy theory :) http://www.smh.com.au/business/world-business/money-talks-for-brexit-bookies-but-it-could-be-lying-20160622-gpptcc.html (apparently from Bloomberg) |

Perfect, thank you! BBC live news online works! Awesome. |

Anybody know how I can watch this live down here in Greece? BBC iPlayer works only within the UK. So we are stuck to "live text updates". |

No, no! They're a bit flexible when it comes to news and a few other programs. Click on Sten's link and then click the BBC1 Live Video thumbnail. I'm watching live now! (At least here in Greece) |

No, no! It works here as well. Thanks Alex and Sten:) |

BBC estimates it will take 16.4* million votes for either side to win so I'm guessing turnout was almost 33 million votes.... *EDIT: Revised to 16.8 million now |

Well, until results from Councils in the London area starts to come in, we can't really say anything. I can say something:) Greater London are Bremainers. As Scotland and Northern Ireland. I dont know about Wales, but I think they vote like England. |

Yeah, and one thing is clear. If Leave win, I'm going to drink myself silly tomorrow :-) How about we do pints in Hartlepool tomorrow regardless? :D 70% leave. |

Nailbiter indeed! Looks like REMAIN could edge forward any second! Edit: didn't even get to post! :D Remain ahead right now. |

Now they start to speak about the Sterling that now is falling. There are not so much traders at this time but they seems very nervous. And so am I. I have some money invested in the UK. If it will be Brexit then I am looser. At very least for some years when Britain are restoring their economy from the fall. |

Over 3 million votes for each side and pretty much 50-50! And I don't have any damn popcorn!! ;) Edit: Why is Liverpool Remain? What am I missing? |

Edit: Why is Liverpool Remain? What am I missing? My sister and nephew lives there:) And Glenn Hysén who played football there of course! |

Now I see that results from districts of Greater London are coming in. They are all Bremainers of course. Still missing Sussex districts though I bet there are Bremainers as well. Funny, the only districts I have been to in England are Bremainers. Hounslow just counted and wants to remain:) Now Nigel, the Brexiteer, having a victory speech... |

ITV and BBC, both now declares that Leave has won. Yes, threw away 10% of the value of the UK so far. Wait till the markets open in the morning and the USD is worth more than a pound sterling. Hope your money was in Euros! |
