Well yeah. The Scottish referendum showed that people fucking hate him with a passion, and yet he still remained. This pretty much seals the deal I'd say.

Essentially, David Cameron and the conservative party were on the verge of losing pretty big. David Cameron decided that pulling this referendum out of his ass would save his job, thinking it had no chance of passing. Well, it did save his job, it could pass, and now him and pretty much every conservative regret it, but have to ride it out because that's their only hope of keeping their jobs. Except for Cameron, he's out. This referendum is pretty much the Donald Trump of the UK. It's heavily favored in the old, the poor, and the undereducated.

Almost up to 500k vote lead for exit.... People are pissed.

This is a highly accurate description for people in the US who might not fully understand it.

I was wrong.

This is going to happen.

I'm relatively certain this may be how the end of the world was predicted. End of the EU, Donald Trump Elected, and North Korea with Nukes.

I'm starting to think the preppers had the right idea.

Holy shit there's a district called Vale of White Horse? That's so fucking cool.

As an ignorant American not up on all the cities/districts of the UK, seeing all these names go by is fastinating.

Yeah, it's half the fun.

There's apparently an area just called Barking. Fucking madmen out there.

Pound down 8% (and still dropping), largest move in a single day in history

**Minions** · 2016-06-23 21:49

Leave has passed 50% of the vote it needs to "win" based on estimates. 8.4m/16.8m(est) votes

Gaps closing a bit as the northern areas fill in.

**Zetanio** · 2016-06-23 21:55

GBP at lowest level since 1984.

**thetruepandagod** · 2016-06-23 21:57

Anyone else planning some cheap spur of the moment trips to the land of the Queen?

There weren't as many scary brown people back then.

Most of those people are long dead now though. 50+41= dead

Worlds very different now.

To be 18 in 1975, you'd have to be 59 or 60. I'm bad at math. That's not that old lol.
