With a bill calling for a referendum on the UK's continued membership in the EU having passed the House of Commons late last month, how would you all vote if you were eligible?

Oh, and an FYI: A 'yes' vote means you favor the UK leaving the EU; a 'no' vote means you oppose the UK leaving the EU.

I voted 'no' -the UK is of far more use to us within the EU than outside of it.

Huh. Four people commented with "no", but there are three "no" votes, and it's currently losing.

Voted no. My cousin in Aylesbury and I had a discussion about it a few months ago. She's very much in favor of withdrawal, which she thinks will benefit their dairy farm and will relax some of the prices. I actually think British withdrawal will cause quite a bit of chaos in European economies which will in turn harm them as well as the rest of us. Uncertainty in the markets and all that.

I guess I'm not a True Leftist, whatever that means.

If I were British, no. From a European non-British perspective, they won't be terribly missed should they choose to exit.

And I say this as someone who has a rather Eurosceptical view on most issues.

Accidentally voted Yes. Obviously they shouldn't, though.

If still part of the UK then no. If not part of the UK, then it depends on whether Scotland has been admitted yet; if we haven't and the withdrawal of the rump UK helps us in that aim then yes.

YES, provided they join the EFTA, so basically be like Switzerland, Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein. Not a fan of isolationism myself.

This. Isolationism is a bad thing, but then so is gradually being welded into a continental superstate.

Assuming all renegotiation efforts have failed, then yes.

No, no , no! EFTA is a joke option too. All EU rules, none of the influence over them.

It worked alright for the U.S. for awhile.

Yes. The relationship between the UK and the EU should be very limited, namely to economic trade issues.
