I stand to benefit if Leave wins, and I'm a Jets fan, so Remain will pull out a late victory, bet on it.
Odds shift BACK toward Remain. In: 4/6 Out: 11/10 Which only means I'm going to stop following the goddamn odds.
Well, this definitely has to be the end of any waffling back and forth. In: 4/1 Out: 1/6 Bookies are going to eat it tonight. 'Bout time.
Trump and Leave are the same thing: lower middle-class voters convinced the elites are screwing the hell out of them and mad as hell about it. Oh, and John Cleese was very public about his Leave preference, which makes me think it's going to happen because he's John Cleese.
If this sticks, I'm dying to see the fallout within the EU Commission. Even money that, by 10:00am EST, Jean-Claude Juncker will say something snotty.
If it sticks the EU is going to spend months trying to make sure nobody else has a similar referendum. Not sure what they'll do but the Greeks are going to want a vote fairly quickly is my guess.
Denmark is the next to fall. Greece won't be anywhere near the top of the list because they're already maneuvering for a third bailout and the quickest way to not get it will be to make a move toward independence. We've already seen Greece's willingness to bend over, butter up and spread its Peloponnesus.
The Greeks only way of repudiating the debt is to get out of the EU. Every time they go to Germany for new terms on the debt things get worse for them. I think they're out because it will let them do what small countries do when their debt burden becomes too large: renounce it. They'll be back to drachmas that nobody values but at least they'll be out of the vice trap that the debt crisis put them in. I agree that Denmark has possibilities also. They've had really bad luck with immigrants.
Stock market futures getting crushed. On the other hand it's gonna be cheaper to vacation in the UK with the the pound getting killed.
Greece won't have that luxury. More likely that it works the other way - that the EU needs to consolidate its base now and abandon the Greek anchor. It's an issue that didn't enter this referendum, but it would on the next. This imminent bailout and the several behind it. The Commission would recommend giving up on Greece before Greece would ever have the chance to opt out.
Why are the pollsters so bad in the uk? They blew the last Election and now this campaign? Significant leave margin at the moment - 4%
He's had a bad week. Backed out of the final debate. Conceded the election minutes after polls closed. Then unconceded. Then reconceded. The re-unconceded. Then pissed people off with comments about how they won this "without a shot being fired," which pissed off people on the other side because of the MP Jo Cox murder. I love the dude, but he must be exhausted.
So the Leave process will begin, probably with Cameron resigning. The dude has already had his sit down with the EU and the Brits will need a fresh face to try to make the exit palatable to the people who voted for it.
