Agreed. It was Leave who said it was going to be easy. For example:

Boris Johnson: "There is no plan for no deal because we are going to get a great deal"

Gerard Batten, UKIP "A trade deal with the EU could be sorted out in an afternoon over a cup of coffee"

David Davis: "You can be sure there will be a deal"
