Prime Minister David Cameron faces a crucial week
British voters’ appetite for leaving the European Union is gathering momentum, putting the prospect of Brexit on a knife edge, a new poll has found.
As David Cameron prepares to travel to Brussels for a crucial European summit to discuss his renegotiation plans, a poll has found that the British public is now evenly split about the prospect of a British exit from the EU. It came as the EU referendum bill last night passed through the House of Lords, meaning that Mr Cameron could potentially hold his vote in June next year. According to the ICM poll for the Vote Leave campaign, when undecided voters are excluded, 50 per cent of voters would choose “Brexit”.
It is the first time since 2013 that ICM has found that voters are evenly split. The independent polling company has in recent weeks found that the gap between the “Leave” and “Remain” campaigns is narrowing significantly. The poll will come as a significant blow to the Prime Minister, who will on Thursday face opposition from European leaders over his plans to restrict EU migrants’ access to benefits in the UK for four years. Mr Cameron is understood to be preparing to offer concessions over the reforms in a bid to ensure a final deal can be done by February.
The Prime Minister has been accused of a “climbdown” over the welfare reforms, with increasing numbers of eurosceptics warning that his renegotiation has failed.
A Commons committee warns in a report on Tuesday that any deal reached by Mr Cameron could be torn apart by European judges following Britain’s referendum because Downing Street has admitted that it will not secure treaty changes ahead of the vote.
Excellent news.
The renegotiation the government is working on is falling apart infront of us. Even if he did secure his reforms that he stated he wanted, they're absolutely pathetic. Anyone who knows anything about the EU knows it has no reversal clutch, it is ever closer union or you leave: simple.
It might all come down to how gullible loyal Tory voters are when the PM comes back waving his piece of paper claiming a 'success'.
Thoughts?
