In 2016 the electorate were offered a second referendum on membership of the EU. Based on information we did not have back in 1975 a majority of the electorate who could be bothered to vote decided we should leave.

Egro we have already had 2 referendums (referenda?) the second being based on more information than available on the first.
Pointless pedantry. Thenext referendum then... which I anticipate this year or early next year. I fail to see the point in wasting my time for this clarification when we both know you knew what I meant.
