The issue is that if we don't accept free movement we don't get free trade in goods and services.
Obviously those who voted to remain by default have no issue with free movement.
In surveys done since the voted the majority of people were fine with an EEA/EFTA relationship with the EU - this involves free movement, however it restores sovereignty to Parliament, which was according to the data the number 1 reason people voted to leave.
