Neil Wilson — How Britain should leave the EU.

The UK should leave the EU by not leaving the EU. What we do is repeal the 1972 European Communities Act. And that's about it.
That ends the capacity of anybody outside the UK from enforcing treaty rules within the UK. We then just assume grandfathering and carry on pretty much as before.
The UK will then move away from the EU in the same way that an iceberg moves away from an ice sheet. Slowly as the laws are amended.…
The rest is brouhaha.

I should think the later treaties trump the 1972 treaty, no? Previous ones are superseded, or are subordinated to, the new ones.

In any case, the proposed referendum in June won't in fact be an in-out referendum. In the unlikely event, that we come to our senses and vote "Out", all that happens is the UK will negotiate terms of withdrawal. A good deal of the EU architecture will stay in place. Tell the plebs that the UK has left the EU, while in actual fact it hasn't at all! Farces of farces, all is farcical.
