The UK is not going to get free market access without free movement of people - this has been stated repeatedly - so that outcome will upset a lot of leave voters.

Don't forget that the Brits will have a much more friendly administration in Washington by the time they start negotiations. Both Hillary and Trump are much more disposed to cutting a deal with the UK than Obama seems to be.

The US is only half of the UK's trade; what about the other half?

Is it half? That seems high, and some googling suggests more like 15% and that the US is roughly similar to Germany alone.
