No way, wishful thinking

The only thing that will placate the Leave campaigns is a halt on free movement of people, which is so fundamental to the principle of the EU that it can't, and wont, happen.

The EU simply can't afford to give the UK a good deal because a substantial number of other countries would immediately hold a referendum to achieve the same deal, and the EU as we know it would collapse.

If we vote Leave, the EU *has* to make it as painful as they can get away with, otherwise we will be just the first of many, instead an example 'pour encourager les autres'.
