UK Prime Minister Theresa May has given a major speech calling for a clean break from the EU:
Theresa May has said the UK "cannot possibly" remain within the European single market, as staying in it would mean "not leaving the EU at all". But the prime minister promised to push for the "greatest possible" access to the single market following Brexit. In a long-awaited speech, she also announced Parliament would get a vote on the final deal agreed between the UK and the European Union. And Mrs May promised an end to "vast contributions" to the European Union.

They keep kicking the immigration can down the road. They could stop more than half of it tomorrow if they wanted to, as it is non-EU immigration, and put severe limits on EU migration in place too. But they don't. They keep avoiding doing anything, because they need those immigrants (fee paying students, skilled workers, farm staff).
Once they can no longer blame it on the EU they will have a real problem. Economic suicide or unpopular immigration.
