My understanding was that some leave campaigners said that the UK should leave the EU but get preferential access to the single market without having to accept freedom of movement to get it.

I know comparisons were made to Norway, etc, but surely that was to demonstrate that even those arrangements were better than staying in the EU.

I, and from my conversations with other leavers (and there are a lot of them), others who voted the same way, are all pretty clear that we wanted, and still want, was a clean break with the ability to forge our own trade deals. The big bus is proof that the leave campaign was looking to save all the money we were paying into the EU.

The same views are reflected in the comments made by leavers in this Forum.

Disappointing, though, are the apologists for the EU, the deniers of our democratic voting system and the sneerers on this forum.
Don't take any notice of this fake news, Seph. Raab is going nowhere.

Yes, they have, Den, because the leavers believe that we are not getting to leave.

I understand that, but what we need to bear in mind is that the document TM has negotiated is about the transition period, during which we would have left but we are still tied to EU rules with no say during roughly a 20 month period. At the end of that, we should have a no-tariff trade deal with the EU and we will be released from EU jurisdiction and the customs union.

Some don't want to wait, but if we want to ensure frictionless trade during this period to help our businesses, then we have to do this.
