The referendum was cancelled because once a treaty is signed it becomes part of the overall stuff of the EU and ceases to exist as a distinct document that can be voted on and rejected. So Cameron was right to that extent. But on the other hand, he knew the limitations of his promise when he made it, and failed to be clear about it.
