Oh shit, the vote leads have been going back and forth all day between whether the UK will stay or leave the EU. With most of the votes in, it's looking highly likely that the UK will leave the EU.
Some aspects of what's happening there are strikingly similar to what's happening here in the lead up to our election. Older, blue collar, white, anti-immigration peeps make up the large portion of those who want to exit. Londoners, Scots, younger adults, businesses, all of the economists, and more educated peeps in the UK make up the large portion of those who want to stay.
If the UK leaves the EU, Prime Minister Cameron is essentially out on his ass quickly. The financial markets are already reacting.
