This is what I was trying to say earlier. There's much about the modern EU that people didn't vote for, but the one thing they *did* vote for was a Common Market. The free movement of goods and services (including labour) between member states is a very long-standing aim of the EU, hence the old name Common Market.
Nobody who voted 'yes' in the referendums can say they didn't vote for this.
