We can leave the EU anytime we like. Article 50 of the Treaty of Lisbon provides for this.
You don't need a referendum the government of the day can just do it. Although a referendum makes sense if you want to have a clear mandate.
Or you vote for a party that has a clear manifesto pledge to leave the EU, such as UKIP did in 2015.

It's very simple.
