Oh I agree absolutely, very little was given before the referendum about what the future state might be, especially with our future relationship with the EU. Unfortunately, we now have to look at all these little things to see if we want to pull in devolved responsibilities or not and how should this be done.
This is why I had my question - how separate from the EU is separate enough? Can and we should we ask for access and be a member of EU organisations for aviation and medicines safety for example? Will this deliver Brexit as the 52% wanted or would it be regarded as 'half in, half out'. How far in is 'in'?
For example, the European Medicines Agency - should we join it? From a purely pragmatic point of view, I would say yes but there are some who might not like this as it's an EU body.
It's a tough one and I don't think even all leavers will be happy with decisions and deals made down the line.
Note - I am not trying to thwart Brexit with these questions! The governments job is to end with some kind of deal but I am interested in leavers opinions on what is leaving?
