The UK could probably get the norway deal. But that would leave a lot of those things in place that Leave was against while being a less beneficial deal than the UK currently has.

So to fulfill their promises Leave would have to negotiate something with fewer obligations than norway has, which most likely means also fewer benefits.

I don't think Leave is particularly interested in fulfilling their promises.

AFAIK any deal has to be negotiated and ratified by all member countries. What are the chances that all members will be inclined to offer UK a better deal than it had when it was a part of the union?

Perhaps the UK could make certain concessions to retain Single Market access.
