Yes.  And the key issue is the same, immigration and its impacts on the economy and security.

Because America is demanding Touchback Amnesty now!

Nigel Farage is feeling more confident

For those of you who have been following this blog since the polls closed, you will recall Nigel Farage calling it for remain, then retracting it and conceding they might win for a second time. Now he's feel more confident that his own camp is going to claim victory.

Interestingly, history shows us that in recent times events in England, like this vote, foreshadow events in America.

When the British voted for Margaret Thatcher, Americans mirrored a vote for Ronald Reagan. When Englanders voted Labour Party, Americans embraced Bill Clinton and the democrats. This pattern has remained remarkably true for many decades.

A leave win would be a good sign for Trump’s America First campaign in November.

Or it will scare the hell out of American voters when they watch the pound sink, the DOW sink,  and realize that Britain will be worse off outside the EU.  It will take the pound years to recover.

Trump will do his blood dance, though, and you sycophants will do the same.  This won't be good for Trump, AC. He's too damned stupid, though, to know what this means.

Do you mind not bringing Trump into this thread please?

There'll be about a million op-eds and glenda natters in the morning on what Brexit means for Trump. Use those. Not here.

It's good for the UK long-term to rule themselves.

According to the BBC news scroll, the pound has hit it's lowest level since 1984 ....  :shrug:

Markets aren't even open for another 3 hours.

I'd not put too much stock in that.

This referendum was supposed to take place in 1991, having been first promised to the populace in 1978.

Son in Law just phoned. He works nights, doing maintenance at the Canary Wharf complex.

His boss just told his team to put the chains on the roof doors before more traders start coming in.  :tongue2:
