    denmark EU vote

    Danes are to have two votes on their EU opt outs
    Its believed that the country will have a vote in September on its opt outs from judicial and defence cooperation.
    A referendum on the euro will be held sometime after that
    Opinion polls have suggested a big-bang referendum including all four Danish opt-outs would be very difficult to win – but taking the issues one-by-one would increase the chances of a yes.

    An opinion poll today breaks the figures down as
    Taken as who would support getting rid of the opt out (ie vote yes)
    Defence cooperation 63% for 22% against
    Judicial cooperation 38% for 31% against

    And the euro 54% for and 42% against

    The defence one is mainly related to the ESDP missions to date, the public believe they are the type of things they should be involved in regardless of their NATO membership which was the issue in 1992
