@batfastad - "Thanks 1.1%"

That is Cameron's fault, he got to set the rules of the game and somehow set the rules up in the opposition's favour

- He could have incldued 16/17 year olds or delayed the vote as late as possible to allow the demographics to swing his way; he could have set the bar at 67% majority and/or 75% turnout; he could have included permanent-resident non-UK passport citizens (those allowed to vote in local elections). Any of these would have improved his chances. Yet he was so unjustifiably confident that he didn't do any of these and we are all now paying for his hubris.

TL:DR - Don't get upset at the result, get upset that the game was rigged.
