英国“脱欧”公投将于6月23日举行。“脱欧”公投,指就英国是否脱离欧盟进行的公投。
“脱欧”派认为欧盟拖了英国的后腿,称欧盟强加于企业过多的规定,作为欧盟成员国每年要上缴数十亿英镑的费用,但回报甚微。他们还希望英国能收回对边界的完全控制权,减少到英国工作生活的人,等等。
“留欧”派称,欧盟成员国身份对英国有很大的帮助,如向其他成员国出售商品更加便利,同时移民潮中大部分都是愿意工作的年轻人,有助于促进经济增长,分担公共服务费用等。
虽然英国首相卡梅伦本人反对脱欧,但对他来说,提前举行脱欧公投的决定,最终变成了一个自己无法掌控的进程。
最晚票区结果预计将在当地时间24日早上7点左右(北京时间24日下午2点)出炉。
