Vote and Britain

: Britain would have two years to negotiate its exit, or Brexit , from the 28-country bloc, according to Euro News. Treasury departments will also be working overtime because a vote for a Brexit would be expected to roil currency markets and have major consequences for trade, the economy and migration in Britain and elsewhere. In the final week before Britain June 23 referendum on EU membership, the prospect of a Leave vote has come into sharp focus, prompting a last-minute flurry of preparations in the corridors of UK PLC . Much of the focus is on communication — how to assure customers, employees and investors that there will be near-term business continuity in the event of an Out vote. Many companies have yet to work out detailed plans, as any post-Brexit picture is unclear and opinion polls had until recently suggested the Remain camp was comfortably ahead. The nearness of the vote and sudden increased likelihood of Brexit has definitely sharpened client appetite for draft statements, said a senior executive at a public relations firm, one of three who said this week there had been an increase in client requests for communications advice. But some have sprung into action since the momentum in the polls swung towards the Leave camp in the latter stages of campaigning, which was suspended on Thursday after a British lawmaker was killed.
