Awaiting the result.....

Postby markwilding » Thu Jun 23, 2016 10:33 pm

Due to the closure of other threads, I've started this thread to discuss the night's events.
As Sid said that another thread should be started regarding the actual result so I will ask him to close this one as soon as we know.


The pound is soaring... Is that an indicator?

So are MI5 furiously erasing crosses in Sunderland and Gibraltar?

I have to say the Referendum has been a conspiracy theorist's dream.

Possibly. I did read that the FX companies had spent millions on getting accurate exit polls so that they could trade overnight before the result was known.

If you want an advance opinion, just follow the FX market overnight.

Status Quo must be thrilled with all the publicity.

5.55 and it's a 'Leave' with the pound having left the planet. It should be an interesting ride in the next few years. I predict chaos initially but a.com will take on more members and Sid will be working overtimes as thousands of people bombard this site with questions.

Yep, it's a Leave. Agree with you Lavanda. Country going mad as initially thought remain would win. Scotland voted overwhelmingly to remain as did NI, London and SE,
Markets going mad. Brussels gearing to make speeches. There has been no sight or sound of party leaders all night. No word so far.
It sees quite surreal, but fascinating

We now all know the result.

There will obviously be plenty of discussion on the implications, but can we please confine them to the new thread that has been started by Costa Kid
