Only if you believe in oligarchy over democracy

Irony.

Funny how democratic votes are apparently not democratic if they give a result you don't like.

IDS looking sheepish NF thinks remain have edged it BJ and 84 out MPs, saying DC has duty to continue.

Draw your own conclusions.

I think the point is nobody can draw solid conclusions!

Technically it would be won by 8.3%, or 4 percentage points.

Leave campaign exit poll of 10000 says leave 52%, remain 48%

I've been hopping between the channels.... I can't believe I'm going to say this but so far SKY coverage is most interesting. BBC is pretty dire... but I thought their GE coverage was dire as well.

Explain to me the Percentage or percentage points thing please

Say in one election the LibDem vote proportion was 10%, and then in the next election their proportion was 12% (unlikely I know), then their proportion would have increased by 2 percentage points (10+2=12) or increased by 20% (10*1.20=12).

Some people said there was only 5% in the Scottish referendum, but actually 22% more people voted No than Yes (55/45 = 1.22).
