yes in the 1975 referendum, but i meant prior to that, the clue is in the name common market ,not european state ,any how with raging inflation ,civil unrest with the unions and the i.r.a at the time people had a lot other things on there mind than the finer points of a european trade deal but at the time of the referendum we where already in the common market,national sovereignty was hardly questioned the common person had no idea about what was being planned

when national sovereignty was mentioned it was normally thought of as scaremongering by the no vote, the media just like brexit seemed that if we left the common market the sky would fall down, but then it was the common market not a european state the public was mislead

We are not in a European state it could only be if other EU countries and ourselves wanted it.
