In the lead up to the Referendum, Conservative MEP Daniel Hannan said during an interview in 2015 that: "To repeat, absolutely nobody is talking about threatening our place in the single market".
However when Nick Timothy wrote the speech that Teresa May delivered at Lancaster House, two red lines were included, henceforth Brexit would mean the UK was leaving both the Single Market and the Customs Union.
Remainers had long pointed out that the Four Freedoms of the EU were indissoluble and if the UK insisted on ending Freedom of Movement it meant the EU would not be able to allow the UK to continue to enjoy the benefits of the Single Maket and the Customs Union.Make sure your MP knows your opinion.

So how come none of this was mentioned? Nobody said anything about extra costs on British exports or goods. Nobody said anything about Sky Sports not being available in the EU. Now I can't watch West Ham and if I order a bike I'm paying 44% more and all that wasn't on the ballot form.
