Whether we now renegotiate our existing terms of membership OR actually invoke Article 50, free movement is a dead policy walking. There is no chance of it being kept.

Indeed. It's just more straw clutching from the remain side.

Because a large number of people in the UK believe immigrants are the sole cause of all problems in the country
Tell them in a round about way that you will stop it and shut the boarders and hey presto an out vote
There is but unfortunately I doubt there will be. As Alex Salmond said today on QT the democratic decision must stand even if there were lies told. In his words, lies are told before every election.
It's quite funny looking at Twitter. All the young, liberal left in outrage at the resignation - whereas 90% of the population at home and not being keyboard warriors will be looking on and thinking "about bloody time".
People who rely on social media for sentiment need their heads checking; it's so out of tune with popular opinion it's scary.

A lot of people were sold on the idea of zero immigration from the EU should we exit the EU, I won't pretend to say a politician said this either, but a lot of people you speak to cited it as a reason. Just take a look at what people like Channel 4 News and Sky News are reporting, hate crimes towards people from European Countries, saying things like "Shouldn't you be going home":
Not quite sure it was never explained properly by anyone.
Just Farage and the likes screaming "Take back control of our borders"

This isn't an election though
It's not like we can change our minds 4 years down the line

I particularly like;
we are much better together in forging a new and better relationship with the EU – based on free trade and partnership
You've all been had.
Agree, but don't think there's precedent for the scale of the lies in a referendum. The decision isn't something we can kick out every five years, so the information should be held to a higher standard in my view.
And given almost the entirety of the Leave argument was absolute wham, then I wouldn't be surprised if another one is called. Only way it happens is if the Tories rebel against Johnson when he comes to power and tries to implement Brexit.
Partially. Look at our economic and foreign policy. Despite what people think we do make our own.

Sorry, our new overlord wants free trade, not Aussie style model.

Pathetic scaremongering. I like how they used Twitter posts to back up their argument. I mean people would never tell a few porkies in the Internet right?
... and we can't have free trade and partnership with the EU without agreeing to the free movement of people. Which if people were paying attention and not being stupid in the build up to the referendum, they would have known this.
I would not bet 5p on that one.

Did you miss the bit where he states "the Government will be able to take back democratic control of immigration policy, with a balanced and humane points-based system to suit the needs of business and industry"?
You seem to be interpreting this one article as some sort of U-turn from Brexit. I think it's wishful thinking on your part. The article you refer to is totally pro-leave, to the point that he talks about what he thinks the UK will be like outside of the EU.
