With the polls closed in the national referendum on whether the country should accept the deal being offered to Greece, early appearances suggest that they have rejected the plan:
After 20pc of the vote is counted, Greeks look to have voted ‘No’ with a 60pc majority against Europe’s bail-out conditions.
Whether this marks the next step in the negotations, the end of a misstep in the European Project, a disaster for the Greeks but not the Europeans, or the end of the European Project remains to be seen.
