David Cameron says he will stay on as Prime Minister even if he loses the UK’s referendum on its EU membership. The Prime Minister told the BBC’s Andrew Marr Show he did not think quitting the EU was the right answer but the government would do everything necessary to make it work if the UK voted to leave.
He also said he was hopeful of a deal by February on the EU reforms he wants to secure before holding the vote. The in-out referendum has been promised by the end of 2017. The Prime Minister also reiterated his desire to campaign for the UK to remain in a reformed EU, but said he would rule nothing out if his demands were refused.
