I have not misunderstood at all. I fully appreciate that the proposed customs arrangements would still allow us to do trade deals on services, but most leavers also want us to be able to do trade deals on goods as well.

We were clearly given reassurance that by being outside the EU we would be able to negotiate our own trade deals, which is an important economic imperative for leaving the EU. Yes leavers did understand and accept that.

You need to grasp the fact that it is the remainers who are confused. Time and time again, on Question Time and in interviews with the public, leavers are protesting that they DID know what they were voting for, contrary to what argumentative remainers keep saying.

You can keep repeating that they did not as much as you like, but that does not make you right, and I aill keep reminding you of this.
