London, June 24 (IBNS): In a close battle, the UK's EU referendum is seeing the 'leave' campaign is leading even as London has overwhelmingly voted in favour to remain in the European Union (EU).

While, 13,411,911 people have voted in favour of 'Leave', 12,535,141 wants to 'Remain' in the EU.

"The pound surged as polls closed before falling to its lowest level since 1985, on signs of a Leave victory," BBC reported.

"Scotland and Northern Ireland appear to have opted for Remain and London has voted emphatically to stay in the EU," it said.

British PM David Cameron thanked earlier for voting in the  historic referendum held on Thursday.

"Thank you everyone who voted to keep Britain stronger, safer & better off in Europe - and thousands of @StrongerIn campaigners around the UK," he tweeted.
