A Com Res survey has shown a stark increase in demand for an IN/OUT vote on the European Union.
According to Sky News.
"A survey shows about two thirds of voters in David Cameron's Oxfordshire constituency of Witney want a referendum on whether the UK stays in the EU."
The survey reveals that the call for an EU referendum needs to include the option for Britain to leave the EU.
"More than half (53%) of Tories in the electoral district said the vote would be pointless unless it included an option for Britain to leave the EU."
Following the same survey, about one third of voters in David Cameron's constituency say they would seriously consider voting against the PM if he declines to offer a referendum. Considering these voters would unlikely choose Labour or the LibDems (unless, of-course, they offered an in/out referendum), we may assume they would vote for UKIP.
The report reveals that the figures are the same for Labour Ed Miliband's constituency:
"According to the poll, 69% of voters in Labour leader Ed Miliband's Doncaster North seat would also like an EU referendum."
All in all, the figures show that the demand for an EU referendum embraces supporters of the two largest parties, so we can't rule out that even many Labour supporters could switch to UKIP at a general election in order to obtain an EU in/out referendum.
