Indeed. I am very far from British problems, but I am very excited. Somehow, it´s a historical moment. British nation is divided 50:50. It means that the nation lost its unityu and doesn't have any clear vision of its future and priorities. It was a mistake to let this very referendum happen...
I was just asked how would I have voted in a similar referendum in Denmark and Norway. Weirdly I think I would vote for Denmark to stay in the EU as it is now and for Norway to stay out of it as it is now ).
Very interesting. I don't know the region well, and haven't a faintest idea why you could think like this (and of course I don't dare to ask you to spend your time on explanations)...
Leavers and remainers are neck to neck again, wow...
I have voted by my legs - emigrated. I love the country and its culture, but I disagree with many basic principles of Russian social and political life (too criminal way of doing everything, too violent behaviour, too much dishonesty in national self-identification, too deep traditions of dictatorship, slavery and servility, too depressed mood of everyone around you, and the web of social relationship too messed up by communist experiments; = briefly: too insane society). So I don't feel myself a normal member of the Russian "community" and wouldn't go to vote at all. I only can say that for EU it would be a disaster to accept Russia - something like the last episode of the Trojan war, with the wooden horse etc... For Russia it could be a chance to change, and it will abuse, fuck up and lose this chance with 100% certainty.
I like Guardian's coverage actually, it is much clearer than BBC's. But BBC with their live streaming is better for the atmosphere, ha ha. I am following both.

Would be great if you find time for some reports and photos - how it went, how people felt, how you voted and why...
