Should have been a minimum of 60-70% before it was classed as a confirmed result.

The government are caught between a rock and a hard place.
Remain and run the risk that the UK is perceived as weak, with the EU voting away matters agreed with David Cameron because the deal had to be ratified by EU leaders.
Leave and take your chances that the deal made, if there is one, might be better or indeed worse than the Cameron deal or even the status quo now.
We won't really know anything until the Conservatives elect a new PM.
Either way it's going to be a really sensitive diplomatic matter to deal wwith.
