I'd wait and see
If other EU countries start demanding referenda (which they are doing, 40 so far) then the EU may be keen to cut a deal quite quickly to quieten things down. Never underestimate the willingness of bureaucrats to protect their personal fiefdoms and benefits by doing backroom deals, in spite of what might be said in public.

There are 40 referenda in 27 countries? Sorry if I'm missing something really obvious.

actually it turned out to be 34
you can have more than one referendum going at the same time in a country. And I am told it is referendums, not referenda. Only ponces say referenda, so I guess I am one.
