The Spectator’s Guide to EU Referendum day (and night)

Britain goes to the polls tomorrow for the most important vote in a generation, as the country decides whether it would like to remain part of the European Union, or leave.

But what will happen on the day itself? And where are the key areas to watch out for overnight?

Here, The Spectator has put together a run-through of what to look out for and when we can expect to find out the results:

Thursday 23rd June

7.00am

Polling stations open across the UK. Voters will be asked the question: Should Britain remain a member of the European Union, or Leave the European Union?

10.00pm

Polling stations close and the counts begin. Unlike a general election, no exit poll will be taken because of the potential margin of error. This will make the result harder to predict until results from the actual counts filter through in the early hours of the morning.
