This 'Hard Brexit is what people voted for' needs to be challenged every time it is mentioned - people who voted for Brexit voted for many different reasons, and certainly didn't have a pre-determined outcome in mind - how could that be possible?
If one reads the document that Camerons's government put out to all households before the referendum it was very clear what voting Leave would mean. 'Leave the Single Market and the Customs Union' What these days is called a Hard Brexit.
Agreed that there are a number of non trade issues that would have affected how people voted.
