Just to have my little say! When we voted in the referendum, (which incidentally was the first choice on the way the EU was going, since 1974), there was never any mention of a deal. This was what the EU and May came up with, as a way of being half in and half out. The problem with this, is that we would still pay contributions to the EU, but have no voting rights. As someone once said 'no deal is better than a bad deal!'
