How is that the opposite of what was voted for exactly?
Under transition, EU law will continue in the UK (Article 127), under the jurisdiction of the ECJ (Articles 86 and 131), and new laws will be framed by the EU with no input from the UK (Article 128). Transition can be extended (from Dec 2020) indefinitely, requiring further annual payments from the UK, which will be set by the EU. (Article 132).

We would not be allowed an independent trade policy, and would not even be allowed to fish in our own seas without EU permission.
