CDS-II

stats: 

0,8,26,11,15,4,4

keywords: 

{'brexit': [0, 0, 0, 2], 'northern ireland': [1, 0, 1, 1], 'scotland': [0, 0, 2, 3], 'england': [15, 0, 7, 12], 'wales': [0, 0, 2, 1], 'june': [8, 1, 4, 8]}

The correct answer is option 2, which states that England and Wales voted for Brexit in June 2016.

Let`s analyze the other options to understand why they are incorrect.

Option 1 states that England and Scotland voted for Brexit. This is incorrect because Scotland, in fact, voted to remain in the European Union during the referendum.

Option 3 suggests that Scotland and Northern Ireland voted for Brexit. However, this is also incorrect. Northern Ireland voted to remain in the European Union, while Scotland voted to leave.

Option 4 states that Wales and Northern Ireland voted for Brexit. This is incorrect because, as mentioned earlier, Northern Ireland voted to remain in the EU.

Hence, only option 2, stating that England and Wales voted for Brexit, is correct.
