Sure, we can tell them by all means but I wouldn't expect them to magically change them.
In reality, I suspect Theresa May will talk tough until the election and afterwards be quiet. Probably she will go for a Norwegian style temporary deal which will last the span of her parliamentry term and possibly longer A typical British fudge which probably more accurately reflects the mood of the nation than either staying in the EU or a cliff-edge Brexit would.
That being said, messages from the EU suggest they are gearing up for a more extreme Brexit than this so we'll have to see.
Interesting times.
