There have been three UK referendums in my lifetime

1975: Should the UK join the EU?

2011: Should we fix our electoral system (a bit)?

2016: Brexit

Fixing the electoral system (a bit) was the only one rejected.

@vnvobit Exactly. It was a small change to their system, just to make their representation a little more proportional, and they still rejected it.
