Non, Non
BBC reports exit polling shows that the French rejected the EU referendum by 55% to 45%. That seems to be a big enough margin to trust, although let us all remember exit polling can be skewed. There was a pretty high turnout too.

This is going to get very interesting before its over. Especially with the sentiment in certain places (Brussels) that they need to proceed and accelerate some of the changes even with a no from France.
I'm glad all I have to do is watch. Although that isn't really fair as it's going to affect us one way or the other eventually.

You aren't kidding. Last week they voted to create the EU diplomacy service.
As for affecting us - this isn't kind, but as I have been watching the drama unfold all I could think of was all the Eurotwits claiming that they should be allowed a vote in our elections, because the US affected them. I just kept waiting for the Germans, for instance, to be allowed to vote in the French referendum. It didn't happen, for some reason.
A wee bit of double standard, huh?
