Watching the EU Elections results live

3. On the bright side, the Lib Dem+Green+Change UK vote is almost as much as Brexit+UKIP

and when the Scottish results come in (SNP doing very well), the "definitely Remain" parties may outweigh the "definitely Leave". What we don't know, of course, is the feelings of those who stuck with Tory and Labour - clearly they both lost a lot of votes in both directions. This vote had been a sort of national opinion poll, but with Tory/Labour votes maddeningly unclear.

However, unless we somehow get a new referendum, that won't affect things. We need Tory rebels to join with MPs to force that (or a general election), or we default into No Deal.
