关于新条约的正式谈判在2015年前不太可能启动。然而,反欧盟人士会不断要求就英国是否退出欧盟举行公投,这些要求还将得到持欧洲怀疑论立场的媒体的呼应。无论公投的时间表如何,在任何新的欧盟计划出现之前,这些要求都会继续激起英国人的辩论,离间英国与其欧洲伙伴的关系。
The only justification for a referendum is to allow the people to determine their position after new arrangements have been proposed.
公投的唯一合理性在于,新的安排提出后,公投能使人民有机会确定他们的立常
A test of opinion is inevitable, and pro-Europeans need to abandon their complacency about this. They should acknowledge that their case has largely been won by default and that it needs to be re-articulated with fresh vigour. Britain is limbering up for another battle over Europe and those who take a realistic view of its future need to prepare, whichever party they support.
对民意展开一次检验是不可避免的,亲欧盟人士需要摒弃在这个问题上的自满情绪。他们应该承认,他们的观点之所以胜出,很大程度上是因为没有与之抗衡的观点;这一观点需要注入新的活力,重新进行组织。英国即将迎来又一场围绕欧洲问题展开的战斗,那些以务实态度看待英国未来的人应为此做好准备——不论他们支持哪个政党。
