17. No. Denmark is firmly in the EU for any foreseeable future.

There is no appetite for any "dexit" based on the current situation. 55% are against a new referendum and only 37 % would like to revisit the question.

And the appetite for a referendum is probably even less after people watch in disbelief as nearly all UK political leaders are eating crow after their bluff has been called.

It is real hard to spot any winners apart from EU member states (mainly the German - French alliance plus the EU bureaucracy) who are eager to see the UK end their halfhearted participation.
