Exactly and several surveys have shown most people want to preserve EU immigrant rights.
It suits May's agenda, and it suits Murdoch and all, but does it suit the people that according to the Joseph Rowntree foundation voted for Brexit?

As I recall the question posed in the referendum was 'Should the UK leave the European Union?' Not, 'Should the UK halt immigration?"
However, the two seem to have been conflated.
