Countries outside the "single market" sell into it all the time.

Of course they do, but have to deal with tariffs and quotas.

Unless they sign a free trade agreement. The EU has FTAs with many
countries which do not involve
adhering to the EU's single market rules.

That sounds a bit contradictory.

The EU has a free trade deal with Mexico. Does that mean Mexicans have
freedom to live and work in
the EU?

Roland's picking up on a different claim by the PP (one which they probably
made in error)

(You have to be really careful here, too many people interpret freedom of
movement to mean freedom of movement and answer accordingly, when it is
clear from the context that the poster means Freedom of Movement! - and
that's a simple mistake)
