I feel sorry for all the postal voters who voted early on the basis of what was said only to discover that this morning a lot of it was lies.

Might have been best he didn't turn up. I like the guy but it might not have any favours turning up because of the whole poster nonsense.
It might be that he was asked to lay low. but in the grand scheme of things he's not the fore front of the leave campaign and after the main 2 hour debate the other night I was happy for it to end at that.
I don't think anymore could have been said from either side as it was turning into a repeat of old saying from other debates and just the usual he said she said from both parties.
I still don't know why they brought Scotland into the debate they wanted to leave the UK for independence a bit like we want to do now so I don't really understand why they thought they were arguing for our interests when they didn't care about jobs, health and the economy.

re: [Update] The UK votes to leave the EU
As a Christian on the more charismatic, evangelical wing I look with concern how a more liberal and secular Europe can affect this country. Please note that I am not supporting anyone who would use their faith as an excuse for hate, that is not part of the Christian faith even if it has been used as such in the past. So I am voting leave.

Same here.
Can see the Voting Station from my house but it has not been that busy so far, have to wait and see after people have got home from work.

Well Scotland didn't want to leave the UK as the results showed.
It was the SNP who wanted to leave and ultimately the Scottish people voted to remain.

No he didn't. He gave them what was he promised in his election manifesto - a referendum.
The UK population has turned on itself all by itself.
If he hadn't offered the referendum he would have been the Breaker of Promises - he can't win can he?

He said he would back the UK on leaving if he didn't get what he wanted from the EU.

evidently he considered the concessions he got as enough.

He came back with nothing

he didn't, you may not think he came back with enough but he didn't come back with nothing.

Seeing as whatever he did get is subject to ratification by the 27 other states. Ain't going to happen.

Most countries in Europe are less secular than the UK so if anything being a member of the EU can only help in that sense

There's a pretty good reason to vote remain: liberalism, liberty and equality, and secularism, treating all equally regardless of religious belief rather than favouring one group over another.
Thanks!

The data seems to indicate you're quietly deluded. The pound just hit its highest level against the dollar since last year, the bookies' odds favour remain most heavily since the book was opened.

Countries may be less secular but as an institution the EU is extremely so.
And maybe it is also the way that Britain works that it impacts us more than other nations but as a group we see the way legislation is framed as being hostile to us.

Actually in the last few hours the odds on remain winning have gone from 1/4 on to 1/7 on so that does not bode too well for the Brexit side in my opinion.
