LONDON — Casting a shadow on grand visions of an integrated Europe, Prime Minister David Cameron pledged Wednesday to carve a more independent path from the continent and promised a referendum within the next five years on whether Britain should exit the European Union. “It is time for the British people to have their say,” said Cameron, whose Conservative Party would need to win the 2015 elections here to carry out the referendum pledge.
In the most euro-skeptic speech of any government leader here in decades, Cameron said he hopes to reclaim powers from the E.U.’s administrative capital in Brussels even if Britain stays in the union.
