My understanding is:
Hard Brexit = leave the EU, Customs Union, Single Market.
Soft Brexit = leave the EU but potentially re-join the Customs Union and/or Single Market.

Cambridge University Press's definitions are:
Hard Brexit: a Brexit in which the United Kingdom stops being a member of the European single market and gets full control of its own law-making and immigration
Soft Brexit: a Brexit in which the United Kingdom's relationship with the European Union is a close as possible to what it was before Brexit: In a "soft Brexit", Britain would be out of the EU but would retain strong economic ties, make budgetary contributions, and allow free movement of people.
Why would you vote to " leave" the EU but then be bound by their rules, regulations, the ECJ and pay in to the EU budget.

But not actually be in the EU to have a seat on the Commission, council or representatives in the EU parliament.??????


I think some people, which is unfortunately a lot of people, are really, really, thick. When it comes to this. Even now after a year of debate, they still don't understand.

Can they take their seats in Westminster and vote against the Government?[/QUOTE]
