And since our law is subservient to the EU, they merely need to pass a

Utter nonsense.
That would require a Treaty change, which the UK would have to endorse.

Not according to what has been posted in recent days. The EU Parliament
would pass a "regulation", and that would be that.

No regulation can override the Treaty of Lisbon.

Doesn't have to. They could pass a regulation banning referendums on EU
membership.

Those dont apply to countries that have not joined.
