Boris Johnson is about to agree a deal which will see tariffs put on UK goods when we diverge from EU standards. This footage, from the referendum campaign in 2016, shows he misled Britain.

We found this footage because we’ve been tracking down every word Johnson said in the 2016 referendum campaign, so everyone can compare what he promised to what he now delivers. It’s 200k words and it’s here at http://JohnsonDossier.com
The dossier contains every tweet, Facebook post, speech, interview, article & parliamentary answer we can find, from Feb-June 2016. It’s a public resource for voters, journalists and politicians to hold the PM to account over the coming months and years
In the full Dartford speech Johnson promises to diverge from EU standards (that’s the whole *point* of Brexit) while also promising there will be no tariffs. That claim, as we’ll see when he signs his deal, was a lie
