Please use this open thread to discuss the referendum results. The Guardian live results are here.
At the time of writing, 3.30am CET, the leave camp appears to be building up a slight overall lead, with large leads in areas of England outside London, and with central London, Scotland and Northern Ireland voting decisively to remain.
Sterling has just had its largest fall since the 2008 financial crisis, and the bookies have switched their odds from predicting a remain victory to backing a leave victory. The turnout appears to have been quite high, about 70%, and that is with over a million new voters registering to vote since the general election.
Will this result in new referenda in Scotland and Northern Ireland? Is Cameron toast? Let the games begin...
