So how is now different from 1975?

So we can understand your reasoning, and it just looks to others that because of what you think regarding continuing membership, it suits your cause not to have a referendum on this issue now.

Especially as the European Union is a far different entity to the Common Market, as it then was in 1975, when you took your right to vote in a referendum.
