This is a big part of the issue; a lot of people didn't realise that the UK *already* had special privileges when compared to other EU countries and could most likely have negotiated even more instead of having an in/out referendum. If we leave and it's a disaster, the EU will probably let the UK rejoin, but we'll have thrown all of those privileges away and would be unlikely to be allowed to keep the pound.
