Yes - in 1972.
They need to repeal that act if we're to exit the EU, and therefore it'll have to go through the standard process in the House of Commons i.e. debate and vote.

There was two things for this
a) vote in 1972 by people to join EEC.
b) MPs passed maastrict treaty in 1992. this is what made the EU
the tories only have a majority of 12? If 6 guys broke away even that would be wiped out.
For me this is a very divisive issue and one that anyone could yet occur

I agree that some skilled foreign immigrants are willing to accept lower wages for their skills. However, there are some work British workers
are not willing to do, especially when it involves longer and unsocial hours.

The whole bloody thing has been divisive from the start - one reason amongst several why it should never have been called. A decision which leaves almost half the electorate dissatisfied (whichever way it goes) is always going to be controversial and have people at each other's throats.
Who cares about division and dissatisfaction if it can unite the Tory party

It seems the English(and those not but living here)have no right to autonomy or a separate English parliament, true democracy at its best.
And that was, indeed, what IDS and Gove were saying to Wayne and waynetta Khan to get them on board (don't laugh - there was a vox pop in Leicester and an Asian Outer was saying it too). I pointed this out when some tossers were saying leaving the EU would 'Get rid of dem Muslims'.
The EU nationals in the UK
I cannot see any of the PM candidates guaranteeing their stay here at this stage. These people (up to 3m of them) have become important pawns or bargaining chips in the future negotiations with the EU.

no this much is true. It gets very very awkward here as quite a few would be here long enough for residency
the thing is very very messy.
why?
think about the logistics.
1. they all pay tax to the treasury. therefore under the currently rules that are residents if they've been working in uk and more than 75% f days in uk.
2. now they all have to apply to get a residency card... but if they've been here for 5 years already and had not needed a card how can the government tell?
3. current;y rules allows anyone a resident for 5 years to take up permanent residency.
whhat is there to stop someone who is here longer than 5 years applying for a permanent resident card now.. prebrexit?
Not really, as we have 2m UK citizens resident in the EU, so it's not really a bargaining chip at all.
When they have to concede Freedom of movement in order to gain free access to the market, that's going to a very funny day.
Which is a worse prospect for them;
1. The repeal of the '72 act vote being out voted?
or
2. Facing the prospect of a massive climbdown over immigration when they get ****ed off by the EU?
All I know is the amount for leaks recently mean these eu negotiations won't be behind closed doors
The die is already cast. The EU have put their stake firmly in the ground
