Cameron: Britain could hold EU referendum within a few months

Britain could hold its EU membership referendum within "a few months" if other EU member states back the reform proposals announced earlier on Tuesday by European Council President Donald Tusk, Prime Minister David Cameron said according to Reuters. “We have only got now potentially a few months before we hold this referendum if we get this agreement,” Cameron was quoted by the news agency. The proposals by Tusk will be discussed at a European summit later this month. cep expert Bert Van Roosebeke cautions that “it remains to be seen if they can really win the necessary support at the upcoming European Council.”
