Why does it take so long for Philadelphia to come in?

"Don’t worry. Brexit is in the bag."

Vladimir Putin will be happy to hear that. RT gave a lot of airtime to UKIP during the campaign. What's his angle?

Watching the returns and for whatever reason I just happened to be thinking of The Napoleon of Notting Hill, so your Chesterton poem was right on time for me.

The discussion and analysis on the BBC is far more intelligent than we hear in the US elections.

Its a family tradition on BBC-TV.

His father Richard broadcast for BBC-TV doing election nights from 1951 to 1964 and actually broadcast for the BBC Television Service in the late 1930’s from Heston Airport as Chamberlain landed from Munich and waved the paper signed by Hitler and proclaimed ‘peace in our time’.

If London has 4 million votes and they’re solidly remain does leave stand a chance?

I actually heard Italy, who has already been discussing leaving.

The UK is a relatively strong country that can survive and thrive by leaving. Italy, on the other hand, is a different story.

Sweden could stand on their own but I don’t think their politicians would allow this type of vote to even occur.

We ALL long for the days of Thatcher and Reagan !!!!!!

A Brexit win speaks volumes. It means one of the remaining citadels of Western Civilization has said No to Socialism, No to Global Governance and No to radical Islam. One hopes the citizens of the United States of America see the benefits of returning to their nationalist pride and the wisdom of their Judeo-Christian heritage.

IMHO, Trump helped the British wake up. He has caused an international discussion of the threats we all face.

This is also a rebuke of Obama, the Globalist elites and the Muslim Brotherhood/ISIS.

Let’s go with Trump/Palin 2016, leave the Marxist Beltway and take our Sacred Republic back!

Fight for America!

It is still statistically and theoretically possible for Remain to win - but it’s extremely unlikely. The voting areas that have currently not reported would have to display vastly different patterns from those that have already voted. While a significant number of those that are still left are expected to vote for ‘Remain’ they would have to do so by a larger margin than anybody has predicted and it’s more likely they will go the other way - still Remain wins, but by smaller margins than originally predicted.
