Cannot find a thread but my understanding it that the UK is leaving the ecc and that this would be a great time to buy pounds; appears the brit pound has plunged. I could not find a breakdown but overall it looks like 71% voted to leave....one article believes that Cameron will stop all immigration; a little far fetched but who knows....referendum to leave the UK seems likely for Scotland

Re: the referendum
Vote was 52 to leave and 48 to remain. So yes the UK has voted to leave the EU.
Right now would be a good time to buy GBP but I don't expect this to continue for long as the essential of the UK are sound.
Cameron has said he will step down and hopes to have a new leader in place by October.
Yes it does make in more likely that Scotland will have a second referendum but to be frank I think that would be a bad choice for Scotland right now and it's also premised that the EU would accept Scotland as a member which is no means certain as Scotland's debt to GDP ratio is currently 9.4% and EU rules are that no member should have more that 3% or if they have over that then they need to show how they will meet that figure which Scotland would find very difficult.
Hope that answers some of your questions.
