I don't know if it's a case of:
1) You tell people different messages according to what they want to hear and hope no one compares your messages.
2) You realise that being outside the European single market is seen by the markets as a poor idea...so you apply a swift handbrake turn.
3) You realise that being outside the European single market is seen by the markets as a poor idea...so you pretend to Sky News that you don't want to leave the single market knowing that a week is a long time in politics let alone 2.5 months!

We certainly don't want to annoy EU member states if we want them to agree our Brexit conditions and future trade terms.

That's incorrect. Since David Cameron's negotiations we can prevent anyone who's a threat from a threat from returning and I link to an independent fact-checking website to show this.
I don't know what the agreement states for not complying with EU legislation. Presumably there's a sliding scale starting with fines. and ending with expulsion. David Cameron's deal made it far easier to deport EU criminals and to prevent anyone who was a threat from returning to the UK. .

That's a UKIP myth, see above post.
