BBC article - Brexit: What you need to know about the UK leaving the EU
Out of the forty plus years the UK was a member of the European Economic Community/Common Market that morphed into the EU trading block, there has only ever been one year that the UK was a net beneficiary with regard to contribution money. British people never had a vote to join, we were taken in 'illegally' by Conservative PM Edward Heath on 1 January 1973.I thought the UK had already left the EU?
It has. The UK voted to leave the EU in 2016 and officially left the trading bloc - its nearest and biggest trading partner - on 31 January 2020.
However, both sides agreed to keep many things the same until 31 December 2020, to allow enough time to agree to the terms of a new trade deal.
It was a complex, sometimes bitter negotiation, but they finally agreed a deal on 24 December.
Heath became Conservative Prime Minister at the 18 June 1970 General Election, unseating Labour's Harold Wilson. The next GE, held on 28 February 1974, gave Wilson the win again. Within months on the 10 October 1974 it gave him a clearer majority. This is actually very interesting because the same thing played out in the 2015, 2017, 2019 elections.
Then on the 5 June 1975, the British people were asked to go to the polls for the '1975 United Kingdom European Communities membership referendum', which in itself was now a de facto leave/remain vote, instead of the one it should have been - 'Do you want to join those people over the Channel who murdered your ancestors for no good reason?' - the war still being very much in living memory.
Anyone who thinks behavioural psychology in UK Government started with David Cameron's 'Nudge Unit', needs to reappraise the past events in light of everything that has been in play since the 2015 UK General Election.
Wonder what armchair behavioural psychologists will make of that one year as a net beneficiary of funds was the 'Official Figures' of 1975 going into the June 1975 vote. Never again did we get more money out of the EU in a year than we plowed in, and that was with the Thatcher rebate that Blair partially handed back.
And with that backdrop, and not even mentioning the 'characters' promoting leave, look at the wording of the question asked in 1975.
I find it an interesting tell, together with that January 30 2020 date from @xileffilex, that in the run-up to the 2016 Referendum, David Cameron appeared to become unhinged in some of his statement claiming Brexit could lead to world war three and Donald Tusk saying Brexit could lead to the end of western civilisation.
I guess the implemented PLAN B.
And guess what is in BREAKING NEWS just as the MPs return from their holidays, the Irish Protocol - moving goods between Britain and Ireland...
Background to 1971:
https://vernoncoleman.com/euillegally.html
Many constitutional experts believe that Britain isn't actually a member of the European Union since our apparent entry was in violation of British law and was, therefore invalid.
In enacting the European Communities Bill through an ordinary vote in the House of Commons, Ted Heath's Government breached the constitutional convention which requires a prior consultation of the people (either by a general election or a referendum) on any measure involving constitutional change. The general election or referendum must take place before any related parliamentary debate. (Britain has no straightforward written constitution. But, the signing of the Common Market entrance documents was, without a doubt, a breach of the spirit of our constitution.)
Just weeks before the 1970 general election which made him Prime Minister, Edward Heath declared that it would be wrong if any Government contemplating membership of the European Community were to take this step without `the full hearted consent of Parliament and people'.
However, when it came to it Heath didn't have a referendum because opinion polls at the time (1972) showed that the British people were hugely opposed (by a margin of two to one) against joining the Common Market. Instead, Heath merely signed the documents that took us into what became the European Union on the basis that Parliament alone had passed the European Communities Bill of 1972.
Some MPs have subsequently claimed that `Parliament can do whatever it likes'. But that isn't true, of course. Parliament consists of a number of individual MPs who have been elected by their constituents to represent them. Political parties are not recognised in our system of government and Parliament does not have the right to change the whole nature of Britain's constitution. We have (or are supposed to have) an elective democracy not an elective dictatorship. Parliament may, in law and in day to day issues, be the sovereign power in the state, but the electors are (in the words of Dicey's `Introduction for the Study of the Law of the Constitution' published in 1885) `the body in which sovereign power is vested'. Dicey goes on to point out that `in a political sense the electors are the most important part of, we may even say are actually, the sovereign power, since their will is under the present constitution sure to obtain ultimate obedience.' Bagehot, author of The English Constitution, 1867, describes the nation, through Parliament, as `the present sovereign'.
