One more time. A customs union (not to be confused with the customs union) could allow us a common trade area with the EU over goods and allow us to negotiate international trade deals on services.

If you search for the term “the customs union” in all of my posts you will find I have only ever used it today to correct your misunderstanding of the subject area.
That's right - a trade area over goods (not services). What I and most other leavers want is the ability to strike trade deals over both goods and services.

I don't know where you have gained a belief that I have changed my mind on this - I haven't.. If you really believe you can have the best of both worlds in relation to goods, you are indeed chasing unicorns. You would have to square that with EU and WTO rules.
