We elect a government with a broad manifesto. Nobody is in love with every line of that manifesto; it's just a matter of picking the one that's the best fit with your own views.
An EU referendum has not been a top priority until now. That's not to say it wouldn't have been welcomed, had it happened. In fact, with the state the EU is now in, I'd say the stars have aligned quite nicely.

Correct!
At no point were we given the chance to decide whether we should be part of a single European state. In what way could those of us who didn't want to be part of that have the chance to vote to stop it?
