In an op-ed in City A.M. Alexander Temerko writes that David Cameron should hold the referendum as soon as possible. With upcoming election in Germany and France, Europe is not in the mood for negotiation or give-aways while the consequences are unknown. However the referendum results will give David Cameron a stronger mandate for meaningful negotiations. 

Alexander also strongly argues in favour of the United Kingdom staying as a member of European Union and calls for the business leaders to raise up and call for the country to remain inside the European Union.
