It's a pity we were not informed about all this supranationalism and integration in the early 70s when we joined the Common Market, instead of being lied to and told we were merely joining a trading bloc.  The result of the 1975 referendum might have been very different if people knew the truth back then, but at least we put it right in June this year.
