How is "leave the EU" nebulous? There's nothing nebulous about it. The only thing that's nebulous, as Juncker said, is Theresa May with her faux-brexit deal.

  It’s nebulous because “leave the EU,” means everything from remaining in the SM and CU, to having no formal relationship with the EU, and a number of positions in between. People voted for the leave option without well defined idea of what that choice entailed. Remain, by contrast, was basically about keeping things as-is.

    "no formal relationship with the EU" - anything else wouldn't really be leaving, would it? It would be partial leaving. The vote wasn't for partial leaving.

      So Japan is "in" the EU, because of the recent trade treaty? This is a formal relationship, after all.

      Then the leave vote wasn't actually leave because even leave didn't want to completely cut the UK off from the single market! That's been the paradox at the heart of brexit since the beginning, they complained about the amount of EU regulation but want to still sell and buy from the single market which requires that they conform to a large majority of the regulations they were complaining about.
