Why was the remain odds so low even when leave was leading in the polls?

*but remain still quoted 1.5 on here

Sharp minds beaten by dullards on this occasion, sadly.

Psychological factors.

Conformity, misplaced consistency, emotion, ignoring the evidence, groupism (the metropolitan London elite), making the wrong connections, mistaking the cause, misinterpreting the evidence, overconfidence/arrogance.

How much did you lose, crags?

^^^^^A bit like liverpool odds at home

I could not believe the odds - as in 4 months of discussing the Referendum with pals, associates, people in the pub, I had NOT met ONE person who was in favour of Remain.

I read it that the media were in their usual London and South-East bubble mode - as were most of the pollsters.

Started LAYING Remain  at 1.27 three weeks before the vote - and kept on laying - I even Laid 1.09 during Voting day.

people thinking there would be some cheating going on.
Speaking of which..
