I actually really believe the only thing that will likely come out of our referendum to the rest of the EU, is that more reform of it is ow seen to be needed and will be done now, Even Germany and France are saying that is needed.
Once that starts to happen any severe grudges against the EU will likely fade somewhat.
I agree with you,I cannot see any leader of a EU Nation calling a referendum,I also doubt in reality any current member Nation would actually vote to leave even if they did too.
Some results would be close but not a majority to leave.
Also unlike our poorly presented and planned referendum, there would be probably locks on it on as to vote majority and turnout too,in the EU Nations as to a referendum being binding.
Not a chance in my opinion that a EU Nation would ever be take out of the EU after a result like ours was,no way.
