Over 50% of Brits want to quit EU after Paris attacks

November 25, 2015

The majority of Brits say they want the country to drop out of the European Union after the recent Paris attacks stirred concerns about unrestricted immigration, an opinion poll found. Some 52 percent of those polled now want to exit the 28-nation bloc, the first time that Brexit got a majority in the outlet’s surveys, the Independent indicated. Forty-eight percent of respondents said they wanted to stay. The newspaper said that the shift toward “yes” vote in the 2017 referendum on Britain’s membership in the European Union was a reflection of the public’s anxiety about the uncontrolled inflow of refugees to Europe from the Middle East and North Africa.
