Overall, I would expect so.
The inner London results are pretty much showing a ~70% remain whilst once you get around the outskirts to the east it reverses.

But overall, I would speculate for Greater London to average out >60% remain

Oh BBC I love you.

Based on that map it looks like the UK has its own version of hillbilly rural xenophobes

jesus, the gap is growing

[Bagor]

Yup. Looking good for Leave unless there is a Birmingham and London effect

[Caged Great]

And instant recession/depression for the UK if it goes through.

This is crazy. I wasn't expecting the Leave vote to be this strong. 52% to 48% now

The markets are having a hey day right now.

So basically now the world economy hinges on not voting Trump in because that probably means global depression. Brave to choose leave, already the economic signs are ominous with the pound's drop.

Word of Warning - don't use Google's results, super far behind

[_Q_]

Oil down $2
Pound Sterling down to 1.37 from 1.5 earlier today
SP-500 futures down almost 100 points

Holy crap!

[FLAMESRULE]

Pound is down about 10% (~1.77 vs 1.92). Gold up about $80/Oz...tomorrow is gonna be a train wreck.

[GirlySports]

british pound went from 1.88 to 1.78 in about 2 hours.

Remain gaining back some hground. Quebec's referendum actually had the Yes sign winning by as much as 50.7% with more votes counted by this time, and we know what happened. London will very likely swing it back much closer.
