UKIP did however set the agenda for this and so the fact this referendum will now be held,no matter what the outcome appears to be,has to be down to their efforts.
They have achieved by that effort, even though I disagree with them,a referendum that has been impossible to get from any party in the UK,since 1975.

I agree. I would also say that for years the public have wanted this referendum, that doesn't mean they want to vote no, it means they want the right to choose, its a big difference. The number of No voters will in no way correspond to the numbers wanting a referendum.
