Exit poll indicates likely landslide for Remain

[GreyWolf]

Posted mine off today. Based on my exit poll, the UK will soon be joining my adopted home of Switzerland outside the evil empire.

Obviously keen to convince us....

No - just winding up the brexiters.

Since I'm a permanent resident of Switzerland, and next year won't have any say in the UK electorally, it makes no difference to me personally whether Britain stays or leaves. I think that it will harm Britain to leave, and so I've voted accordingly.

Will never trust a poll again after 2015 election but for S&G ..

I understand that the pollsters have modified their methods since the General Election. The bookies look to have Remain as firm favourites. What I don't get is that online comments from many sources would indicate Brexit. I appreciate this is most unscientific, but even comment sections on things like The Guardian look to favour it. Any BBC comments section is totally one sided. Perhaps Brexit pays for more trolls. Perhaps people are coy about saying they'll vote out - who knows?

I think it's bollocks though.

If BREXIT = lower house prices, loads will vote out!

The only reason house prices would go lower is actually due to a fall in the strength of the pound.

For use using sterling we will not see a drop in the price of houses however the drop against the other currencies will mean that house prices will be dropping for people not using sterling but looking to buy in the UK.

So effectively you know al the rich foreigners who apparently own most of central london - they may loose out because of a brexit.....unsurprisingly these are the people telling us a brexit would be bad..

however I do not think many of us give a fook about that

Would agree, but does anyone in their twenties think about buy a house these days? If you said thirty-something I would say you're on to something. I did laugh when Osborne said house prices would drop.

My wife and I voted by post yesterday.

Your wife just told me she voted exit. So its a 50/50 split.

No - just winding up the brexiters.

Moving to Switzerland has messed up your thinking process. You are not a resident of the UK so have no idea.
