Well, we're just going to have to agree that we each think the other's position is bullshit then. I'm not going to argue the point this morning, I'm too busy trying to figure out how to respond to all of this in terms of life direction.

I'm just going to say that I don't think it would have made a blind bit of difference. This is highlighting years of political failure, across the spectrum.

At least Scotland now absolutely has a justification to abandon the UK, and I strongly hope it does.

How exactly would Milliband/Burnham/Cooper have reached out and inspired all of these working class voters? 3.5m of which voted UKIP at the least GE.

Thank you for making me smile in an otherwise appallingly shit morning.

Nigel Farrage has apparently just said it was a mistake to say that the 350m saved would go on the NHS. This is so fucking predictable. Not the result obviously, but what happens from here.

I love this rhetoric about 'unity' and working together. Fuck off. Just fuck off. I'm not working towards this dystopian nightmare.

I actually can't believe this. I actually think I might move to Scotland. Britain, you fucking joke.

The only thing keeping Remain in this is Scotland. 5 backwater English nowhere towns vote leave and a decent size Scottish region kills them off. I worry what'll happen when we exhaust Scotland though. Also special mention to Belfast, they did well also.

Glasgow taking remain ahead. This is mental by the way. Scotland and London are going to look like they're holding the UK in. This is going to be a disaster for the country. England will point the finger at Scotland, Scotland will be horrified that it's wedded to such a backwards country, London will be universally hated... This is all, 100%, absolutely, on the Tories. This is the biggest political fuck up I think I've ever witnessed.

That's a bit more like it. Near to parity again, albeit briefly.

There goes Hartlepool. It's still close mind, and it feels like a few of the shittest places have come up already.

Can you imagine what this would look like if we'd lost Scotland in their referendum? At least the Scots have some sense.

South Tyneside gone now. Newcastle is looking like ending up as the sole bastion of common sense in the whole North East so far, and even then just barely. How depressing this is.

If I was one of them, I'd be mortified by that result.

Sunderland deserves every fucking economic woe that happens to it from this point on. Regressive fuckwits.

The last thing we need is a knee jerk reaction to a terrorist attack, the facts about which we don't even have yet. Besides, it could well be a hard right nutter at this point. Have they confirmed it was an Islamic fundamentalist? If not, no one has anything to complain about.

I know I shouldn't start thinking like this as everyone's experiences of life and rationales in voting are different and equally valid, but I'm becoming increasingly frustrated with these older people who consistently vote for utter shit.

There are large scale Facebook pleas from people under 30 in my feed begging people to vote Remain. Quite why any of them should be forced to live the next 50 years in a state that they actively resisted is beyond me.

Yeah it's hard to imagine anyone at all looking at that image and thinking 'right, remain for me'. He'll know that too, but I think he just likes the attention.

Thanks CT. That's actually a really good analogy.

Are they doing exit polls?

It was one of the most fucked up seconds of my existence.

I thought you were serious for a second

Agree that Labour are in trouble although Corbyn has played this better than feared. He's made some good speeches while at the same time not alienating the working class vote. Could have been worse.
