Jason, the poll you refer to is here: https://d25d2506sfb94s.cloudfront.n...mesResults_170118_VI_Trackers_MaySpeech_W.pdf
If you care to read through the various questions, you can see that many people approve of a policy of keeping all the bits of the EU they like and ditching the rest. Not at all surprising, but unfortunately not the choice, as I said.
Some of the other answers are interesting, however, because they show a generally increased pessimism over the likely outcome. Since the last survey they now think outlook is worse for jobs, worse for the NHS, worse for pension. The number thinking Brexit will cut immigration is up, but since I also agree this seems likely (because the immigration rate is tied to economic success), those might be remain voters!
There is a big majority for wanting control over immigration, but interestingly even bigger majorites for ensuring any EU citizens here have a right to remain. Also for maintaining an open Irish border, interesting one that. Much lower majorities for negotiating special deals on the internal market and customs union. A vast majority of 85:2 for continuing participation with the EU in all security areas. 'Cake and eat it' is popuar. Shame it isnt going to work, and then people will have to face reality.
