2016年6月23日，联合王国举行全民公决，决定脱离欧盟。除了英国公民，英国直布罗陀海外领地的居民也被允许投票，96%的人投票留在了英国。尽管英国退出欧盟的确切模式和时间尚不清楚，但这场运动的特点是辩论日益激烈，对英国及其在21世纪与更广泛世界的关系的愿景形成鲜明对比。马修·C·本韦尔和阿拉斯代尔·平克顿认为，英国2016年的脱欧公投活动以及它邀请的政治和经济评估暴露了英国与其海外领土(OTS)之间不断变化的关系，并表明了欧盟在促进OTS的政治、经济和地区安全方面所发挥的作用--这一观点经常被OTS的所谓朋友和支持者忽视。
On 23 June 2016 the United Kingdom voted in a referendum to leave the European Union. As well as citizens of the UK, residents of the UK Overseas Territory of Gibraltar were also allowed to vote, with 96 per cent voting Remain. While the exact modes and timings of the UK's exit from the EU remain unclear, the campaign was characterised by increasingly heated debate and sharply contrasting visions for Britain and its relationship with the wider world in the twenty-first century. Matthew C Benwell and Alasdair Pinkerton argue that the UK's 2016 EU referendum campaign and the political and economic evaluations that it has invited have exposed a shifting relationship between the UK and its Overseas Territories (OTs) and demonstrate the role played by the EU in fostering the OTs' political, economic and regional security – a perspective often ignored by the OTs' so-called ‘friends’ and supporters.
