    Sure.

    But no, it wouldn't be cool to cancel Brexit if we sorted [that] problem, because [that] problem has literally no bearing on my vote to leave.

    I do not care very much about immigration one way or the other, it isn't a trigger for my inner political animal. ;)

    That wasn't what Ashcroft showed.

    Yes, a legal undertaking to ensure the separation of the internal market from all of the social and fiscal legislation they will need to make the eurozone work**. In that circumstance, i'd be very happy to remain in EEA/Efta.

    My vote to leave was in large part because the 'emergency' of eurozone incompetence was always trying to be fixed at the level of the EU28 as a 'single-market' matter.

    If that is not possible, i'd be fine with something hung off the bones of the Ukraine DCFTA.



    ** Cameron secured this for Britain, in theory, and i'd have been content with that until Belgium insisted it only apply to Britain. In one move shafting the little countries and denying us a coalition to enforce the opt-out from QMV.
