Cameron: “Referendum to exit the EU

but the time is not yet ripe”

LONDON – David Cameron explicitly opens up the possibility that Britain can leave the European Union in a referendum, but only when the time is ripe. The British prime minister expressly states this in an article that will be published tomorrow on the conservative Sunday Telegraph. Cameron wants a “genuine choice” of voters, but an immediate referendum on whether or not to remain among the Twenty-seven is not what the majority of citizens, according to him, want at the moment.

Cameron, leader of the conservatives who embody the British Euro skepticism, explains in the article that in the face of an evolving European Union London must make its weight felt: “We must expect more, more moves, probably more treaties, where we must pursue our interests, safeguarding the single market, remaining outside a federal Europe “. All this, according to the British premier, represents a perspective, while for now it is better to be “strategically and tactically patient”.
