Laura Kuenssberg 'embarrassed' by Boris Johnson email error

The presenter's scheduled interview with Johnson was pulled after she accidentally sent him her notes.

www.bbc.co.uk

Done accidentally according to Laura K, a word that should be positively dripping in quotation marks.

I mean I wouldn’t put it passed them but frankly about 70% of Johnson’s book appears to be lies so I’d imagine this is probably more of the same

Someone has had enough of her at BBC News... Anyway, the notes.

Some sort of 'talking out of his arse' gag seems appropriate here.

Unlike the rest this is something that could easily be checked.

I mean lots of the rest has been checked and found to be BS , the man is a grifter and it seems a pathological liar . Im not saying I don’t think it’s something I’d put beyond the state of Israel but if Johnson told me it was Everton Newcastle tomorrow I’d be checking the fixture list again .

I do hope though it causes some kind of crisis of conscience to those who unequivocally back both Johnson and Israel .

What's a little odd to me is that the quote I've seen from the book suggests it wasn't his own idea and he says he was relieved when the Lt. General told him it was "feasible (but) the UK would “have to explain why we are effectively invading a longstanding Nato ally”."

"I secretly agreed with what they all thought, but did not want to say aloud: that the whole thing was nuts.”

So if he thought it was nuts and "secretly agreed" with the naysayers, who's supposed to have floated the idea in the first place? Cummings? Carrie?

Maybe when Pete was in his favourite glory hole he floated the idea. Obviously flattening Tehran didn't gain traction, but the Netherlands is already flat, so half of the job done already.

Just seen that absolute fraud on the box. Surely everyone has sussed him now, even the clowns who voted him in?

@peteblue he's such a charismatic loveable character though.

This must confuse Johnson a bit as he rarely sticks to a promise he's going to pull out.

I wonder if there is something wrong with him? No real journalist would accept not being able to record an interview or take notes, and he would know that more than nearly every other politician so those could have been conditions set deliberately to make the interview be cancelled. It also makes one wonder whether those notes were actually "accidentally" sent.
