“The UK is set to go to the polls in a historic referendum on whether the country should remain a member of the European Union or leave.
“Polling stations are open between 07:00 BST and 22:00 BST.
“An estimated 46,499,537 people are entitled to take part in the vote – a record number for a UK poll.
“It is only the third nationwide referendum in UK history and comes after a four-month battle for votes between the Leave and Remain campaigns.
“In common with other broadcasters, the BBC is limited in what it can report while polls are open but you can follow the results as they come in across the BBC after polls close on Thursday evening.”
