The people who Brexit will feck the hardest are share holders and people in upper-middle professional jobs. Unskilled workers will in the long run be the ones to benefit. IMhO.

No.

Professionals will have to look abroad or take lower paid roles, big businesses will relocate and take high paying roles with them. All those taxes will need to be made up from somewhere and thats where the working class come in. Oh, and cuts to services.

i think the point that was made on bbc a minute ago made a lot of sense, the main argument by the remain campaign has been it will destroy the economy if we leave but with so many people struggling to make ends meet, that comes across as laughable argument to people living on very little.

it seems so far that well off people voting in to keep what they've got, and people who have very little are voting for change because they have nothing to lose and just hope for change and feel they have been forgotton and abused..... maybe im been simplistic but that seems to be the case

Judging by the currency fluctuations after Leave results come in they may need to start planning on making do with even less.

Why are the Bremainers a bit panicked so far?

You're currently 370k vs 340k ahead.

The actual totals themselves mean very little - if you took 10 constituencies expected to be 70%+ remain, and only had a 55-45% lead, then it'd still be disastrous for the leaders even though they're ahead.

Meh, better than asking a bunch of so-called experts who seem to have gotten it wrong thus far, yet again.
 
People need to calm down a bit. It's still very early in the counting and a lot can happen.

Besides, even if we do leave, it's done then. Nothing we can do about it.

This reflects the correction from earlier in the week when it looked as though Remain would win, which the market subsequently priced in, which quickly unwound when Leave made early gains a few hours ago.

Yeah because the unskilled workers are who drive innovation in the country. Feck me, this is such a depressing state of affair that so many people feel so limited with themselves.

Been on the Sky one for about 10 minutes. Took digging around to find the numbers on BBC's BBCReferendum twitter account as Sky are useless and are interviewing people instead of showing numbers.
