At Chatham House yesterday Cameron stated,
that if the UK votes to leave the EU, the “choice cannot be undone”.
But Article 50, paragraph 5 of the Lisbon Treaty unequivocally states: “If a State which has withdrawn from the Union asks to rejoin, its request shall be subject to the procedure referred to in Article 49.”
Article 49 is clear: “Any European State which respects the values referred to in Article 2 and is committed to promoting them may apply to become a member of the Union.” It then details how the process would occur.
For Mr. Cameron to have claimed that the choice is irreversible is dishonest and alarmist.
So its now a fear uncertainty doubt and lies strategy from our slimey old Etonian PM.
