That’s disingenuous.

Striking independent trade deals was discussed extensively. Leaving the customs union is the technical measure required to fulfil that aim. Googling the phrase “customs union” and concluding that because the UK’s trade policy wasn’t discussed in those terms, it therefore was not discussed, is a pretty poor quality piece of work and leaves me wondering whether Full Fact’s work is similarly compromised in other ways.
